Comment:

 Vanto I think you don't understand why the ticket is being closes. You are
 making a language change proposal in the wrong place. This trac is for
 compiler bugs and features. Not language changes. This is a GHC specific
 bug tracker. Language changes affect more than just GHC, there are other
 Haskell compilers.

 This amongst others is why we have the different proposal process on
 github which is not associated with GHC but the Haskell group.

 Please make your proposal there. Do not keep re-opening the ticket as that
 serves no point. It will just be closed, ignored or deleted for the
 reasons I stated above.
