Comment:

 While I appreciate your search for simplicity in posting proposals here to
 Trac, the community has decided that the place for proposals is
 https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals. Having two places for
 proposals is not a good idea, in my opinion.

 So, I continue to urge you to place your proposal on GitHub. If you run
 into trouble following the instructions there, feel free to ask questions.

 Looking over your proposal attachment, that will need to be much more
 detailed for a real proposal. For example, the motivation reads "I think
 this make good sense." But you have to explain why so that others might
 come to agree with you.

 Until you go through this community-decided proposal process, we can't
 make further progress here.

 Because this ticket is in the wrong place (Trac instead of GitHub), I am
 closing.
