Comment (by Iceland_jack):
I bumped into this because I have `UnboxedTuples` enabled in my ''.ghci''
but in a future where `OverloadedLabels` are ubiquitous a user cannot use
unboxed tuples without modifying every parenthesised label in the module
first: potentially resulting in large diffs, potentially going against the
style of the project (or style guide).
Not a huge concern but definitely raises an eyebrow
----
This could of course be ameliorated by ''local'' language pragmas ;) think
about it (local `Strict`, `RebindableSyntax`)
