Comment (by nomeata):
Maybe it would work better if a symbol could have an text field attatched
for “arbitrary text to be displayed on `:info`”, and `:info` would show
that. It could simply say
> Coercible is a special constraint with custom solving rules. Please see
section ... of the user’s guide for details.
Note that we stopped calling `Coercible` a class; as it is not a class.
