Comment (by acowley):

 I ran into this with constraints. A
 [http://www.seas.upenn.edu/~acowley/papers/hocl.pdf paper] I submitted to
 Haskell Symposium describes a method of factoring an embedded language
 into various features. In the current state of things, a language that I
 use for writing GPU programs is defined like this:


 {{{#!hs
 type Hocl c repr = (Abstraction c repr,
                     ArrayFeatures c repr,
                     Bitwise c repr,
                     Boolean c repr,
                     Branch c repr,
                     Comp c repr,
                     Cast c repr,
                     Gather c repr,
                     Image c repr,
                     ImageM c repr,
                     Iteration c repr,
                     IterationM c repr,
                     Math c repr,
                     Statements c repr,
                     Swizzle c repr)
 }}}

 I've already done some nesting for `Math` and `ArrayFeatures`, and I can
 do more, so this isn't a deal breaker for me but a matter of convenience.
