I hope that the GHC people will give to this a high priority. Specially for the people of FP Complete for which this should be a first target.

I know that Simon Peyton Jones gave up in "avoid success at all costs" and not it invest in the industry. Isn't?

I quite like this idea, and I think this is one thing people use TH for now instead.

(Using quasi-quotes, you can produce any compilation error you like...)
It would be great if we didn't have to pull in the full power of TH (or QQ) for this.
