Not only we still have pseudo-method syntax (for arrays only), but this allows customizing the type when needed. But: is there a way to define functions corresponding to language operations (opEquals, opIndex, toString...) without creating a true type?

No. You need to create an actual type for that sort of thing. Arrays aren't intended to be used for creating types. strings are kind of a special case in that regard, and they're not exactly their own type anyway.
