Hello everyone, I am the shepherd for pull request #195 to wrap `Q (TExtp a)` into a newtype synonym `Code a`. The main change to the language is that the special Template Haskell notation for typed splices will will work with `Code a` rather than `Q (TExtp a)`. The benefit of having the newtype is that it makes it possible to abstract over `Code`. For example, you can work with typed name environments like `MapF Name Code`, where `MapF` is an "indexed" variant of `Map` which maps `Name a` to `Code a` (`MapF` is defined in package `parameterized-utils` on hackage). Making typed TH work with `Code` directly avoids the need to constantly switch between `Code` and `Q (TExp a)` and with the new system users of typed TH are not likely to deal with the latter much at all. For these reasons I recommend that we accept this proposal. Please let me know if you think otherwise. -Iavor
