Yang et.al.) and implemented by Giovanni Campagna. Some things may change before the 8.2 release, but I (Simon M.) wanted to get the main patch committed so that we can iterate. What documentation there is is in the Data.Compact module in the new compact package. We'll need to extend and polish the documentation before the release.
