Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 I often find myself working in `Check` and `Match`, and I'd certainly like
 to address some of these pattern match coverage check-oriented tickets
 some day. But I often find myself handicapped by my unfamiliarity with the
 structure of the code in that part of GHC, so I think that in order to
 productively maintain it, I'd need someone to give a tour of that section
 of the codebase, highlighting what each thing does. (I've read "GADTs meet
 their match", but that doesn't really come with a field guide as to how
 each concept translates to actual GHC code.)
