The first decision is:  Do I keep the conventional format (label, mnemonic,
operands) ... in other words, try to remain as faithful to convention as
possible, or do I go for the A=B approach?

The next decision is:  How to handle all the addressing modes, sizes, etc.

Either way I go, I obviously have to allow for the generation of any
instruction that the normal assembler provides.

The size parameters give me fits, too.  I'm sorta toying with the idea of a
size declaration.  In other words, you could declare D0, say, to be size byte. 
From then on, until you redeclare it, every reference to D0  would produce a
byte instruction.  Saves all the '.B's.
