Comment:

 Unfortunately, this proposal is completely incompatible with how layout
 rule works in Haskell today, which is that is triggered on a few special
 keywords. There is nothing of the sort here, so you would have to enforce
 layout through an alternate mechanism. I think it's unlikely that we'd
 accept this proposal.
