This seems like a clear step forward, and I think we should accept.

I read the lively discussion
<https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/83#issuecomment-337685679>,
and my only minor concern is that "StarIsType" wastes extension namespace
on the wart that is "*".  That's ok though because in time that extension
could itself be deprecated.
