Hi Ben, devs, I'd like to propose that we merge my latest ORF patch (https://phabricator.haskell.org/D2708) for 8.2 (modulo any code review improvements, of course). The corresponding proposal discussion (https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/6) seems to have reached a broad consensus. But it's not clear to me if some kind of final approval from the GHC committee is needed, or how to obtain that. This patch makes breaking changes to the experimental OverloadedLabels extension, and I think it would be good to make those quickly rather than having another release with the "old" version. Moreover, the work has been in progress for a long time, so it would be great to see it finally make it into a GHC release. Any objections?
