GHC HEAD still doesn't seem to recognize GND as Safe. I guess we can lift this restriction now that we have roles? Roman

Roles makes GND completely type-safe. You cannot make unsafeCoerce using GND.
However, you can look around abstractions with GND, both before and after roles -- roles weren't really designed to stop you from doing this. See #5498. Whether this is grounds to make GND unSafe is up to the designers of Safe Haskell.
