[ghc-steering-committee] Updated partial type signatures (#194) - recommendation: accept

I read the proposal in full today.
* I think I like the idea of explicit syntax for partial type signatures
* Elision in types doesn't seem all that useful, yet it occupies prime
syntactic real estate. I thought about this for a while and I don't have
any alternative suggestions unfortunately.

Cheers
Simon
