Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 You're right, a {{{Quasi}}}-based approach would be way cleaner. I'll
 update Phab:D1109 to incorporate that.

 I have one more question about fixities of {{{PrimTyConI}}}, though. It
 makes sense that {{{(->)}}} has a fixity, now that I actually think about
 it, but what about prefix types like {{{Char#}}}? Would these always have
 be {{{infixl 9}}}? If so, should calling {{{qReifyFixity}}} on a
 {{{TyVarI}}} also yield {{{Fixity 9 InfixL}}}?
