#3545: As-patterns for type signatures
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
Reporter:  LouisWasserman    |          Owner:                  
    Type:  feature request   |         Status:  new              
Priority:  normal            |      Component:  Compiler (Parser)
 Version:  6.11              |       Severity:  normal          
Keywords:                    |       Testcase:                  
      Os:  Unknown/Multiple  |   Architecture:  Unknown/Multiple
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
 The proposal: in any type signature, the presence of type variable

 x@pat

 matches the type specified by pat, and replaces any occurrences of the
 type variable x with pat.  In particular, this might be comparable to
 defining

 type x (free variables in pat) = pat

 with scope solely to the right of the as-pattern.  Alternately, it might
 be compared to an equality constraint (x ~ pat).

Comment:

 Let's leave this as an unmilestoned feature request.  It needs a lot more
 discussion.
