What's the status of the TDNR proposal [1]? Personally I think it is a very good idea and I'd like to see it in Haskell'/GHC rather sooner than later. Working around the limitations of the current record system is one of my biggest pain points in Haskell and TDNR would be a major improvement. Thus I wonder if someone is actively working on this proposal?
The TDNR proposal really tries to do two separate things:
1. Record syntax for function application. The proposal is to tread "x.f" or a variation thereof the same as "(f x)"
It is more like "(ModuleToGuess.f x)" than "(f x)". -- Nicolas Pouillard http://nicolaspouillard.fr
