Comment (by Lemming):
Replying to [comment:6 bgamari]:
> It doesn't seem unreasonable to me to require users writing code like
`asTypeOf1` to explicitly disable this warning. At the moment this can
only be done on with module-level granularity but hopefully in the future
we will have [[Design/LocalWarningPragmas|mechanisms]] for silencing
warnings with greater precision.
If would prefer to disable the warning per constraint. E.g. I could wrap a
not strictly needed constraint in a magic {{{Used :: Constraint ->
Constraint}}}. However, this would not be possible in Haskell 98.
