 Replying to [comment:19 RyanGlScott]:

 > We could include this warning under the scope of -Wincomplete-patterns,
 but I think it's best to keep these two things separate, since one might
 conceivably wish to disable partial record warnings while still having
 -Wincomplete-patterns on.

 I agree. I thought it is safety to separate it.


 > Yes. The underscore prefix is already an established convention for
 silencing other warnings.

 Thanks a lot. I learned.\\
 I agree. This rule seems even good in `partial record selector` case.
