My native language (Brazilian Portuguese, the "last flower of the Latium, uncultured and beautiful") has an olympic-gymnast flexibility towards the positioning of the elements in a phrase, and that flexibility has many poetic uses. So, to many poetry-inclined Brazucas like me, it's probably not as annoying.

Lots of synthetic languages (Slavic ones, most notably) have completely flexible word order. Yoda-speak sounds contrived in Russian, but not that much unusual - similar sentence constructions are used in official speech and in poetry.

Still, Yoda-assignment looks somehow unappealing.

Pretty much, a yoda-assignement would not work at all :-P
