Re: [ghc-steering-committee] Discussion on proposal #99: forall {k}

Yes -- it's a property of the type. This aspect wasn't highlighted in the original proposal because it's not a change. Types *already* have this inferred/specified distinction (and have since GHC 8.0), but users can't directly access the feature. This proposal is all about -- and only about -- concrete syntax.

accept and merge it in.
