Comment (by Lemming):
Replying to [comment:27 konn]:
> Example:
>
> {{{
> flipAdd :: (Multiplicative r, {-# NON_REDUNDANT #-} Abelian r) => r -> r
-> r
> flipAdd x y = x + y
> }}}
>
> Compiler should warn `Multiplicative r` as redundant since it doesn't
use any multiplication, but `Abelian r` should be unwarned because it's
marked as ''non-redundant''.
I like this approach, too, but I would prefer a positive attribute, e.g.
`{-# REQUIRED #-}` or `{-# INTENDED #-}`.
