Re: StricterLabelledFieldSyntax

Hi all,

I've made a ticket and proposal page for making the labelled field syntax stricter, e.g. making this illegal:

data A = A {x :: Int}

y :: Maybe A y = Just A {x = 5}

and requiring this instead:

data A = A {x :: Int}

y :: Maybe A y = Just (A {x = 5})

and, as currently, "(f some expression) {x=5}" still requires those parentheses also? Although depending on the surroundings, after this proposal, it might need to become "((f some expression) {x=5})" -Isaac
