I think Ed’s structs package explicitly makes use of this :)
Oh, interesting! Thanks for the pointer! Looking at Ed's code, he's seems to be doing something similar to that I'm also interested in: having a SmallArray# that at one index points to another SmallArray# and at another one to a ByteArray#. (my use case involves multiple small arrays, so I'd rather use SmallArray# than ArrayArray#): https://github.com/ekmett/structs/blob/master/src/Data/Struct/Internal.hs#L1... So I guess my second question becomes: is anyone aware of some rts/GC invariants/expectations that would be broken by doing this? (ignoring the issue of getting every `unsafeCoerce#` right :) Thanks! - Michal
