In Data.Type.Equality, we have both
{{{#!hs castWith :: (a :~: b) -> a -> b }}}
and
{{{#!hs gcastWith :: (a :~: b) -> (a ~ b => r) -> r }}}
But in `Data.Type.Coercion` we only have
{{{#!hs coerceWith :: Coercion a b -> a -> b }}}
It seems to me that for the sake of consistency, we should add
{{{#!hs gcoerceWith :: Coercion a b -> (Coercible a b => r) -> r gcoerceWith Coercion a = a }}}
