Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 Replying to [comment:5 simonpj]:
 > Do you also, as #13415 implies, want the non-`deriving` case to work?

 Indeed, I think that if I can figure out how to make it work for
 `deriving`, I don't think inferring constraints for arbitrary instances
 would be that fundamentally different in operation.

 Granted, I don't think I'm going to knock out both at the same time. Baby
 steps and all.
