You are my hero.

Hi folks,
I implemented what I had in mind in https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/3959. CI should turn green any hour now, so feel free to play with it if you want to. With the wonderful https://github.com/mpickering/ghc-artefact-nix it will just be `ghc-head-from 3959`.
Cheers, Sebastian

2.) Another scenario that I'd really love to see supported with COMPLETE pragmas is a way to use | notation with them like you can with MINIMAL pragmas.
(2) is a neat idea, but requires a GHC proposal I'm not currently willing to get into. I can also see a design discussion around allowing arbitrary "formulas" (e.g., not only what is effectively CNF).
A big bonus of your design is that it's really easy to integrate into the current implementation, which is what I'd gladly do in case such a proposal would get accepted.
in the original ticket where a COMPLETE pragma was suggested ( https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/8779) the ability to specify arbitrary boolean formulas was already present:
“So here is what I think might work well, inspired by the new MINIMAL pragma: … The syntax is essentially the same as for MINIMAL, i.e. a boolean formula, with constructors and pattern synonyms as atoms. In this case”
So one _could_ say that this doesn’t need a proposal, because it would just be the implementation finishing the original task ;-)
Cheers, Joachim
