Just an idea I wanted to get out there, I don't think it causes parsing
ambiguity
{{{#!hs
-- id :: forall a. a -> a
id :: a. a -> a
-- everywhere :: (forall b. Term b => b -> b) -> (forall a. Term a => a ->
a)
everywhere :: (b. Term b => b -> b) -> (a. Term a => a -> a)
}}}
I think it looks beautiful but clearly more difficult to Google or grep
for.
