Comment (by simonpj):

 > All of this raises the question: Is the STM invariants feature really
 where we want to spend our complexity budget?

 I think that's an excellent question.  I suspect you are right.  If we
 want to go that way we should advertise our (provisional) intention on
 ghc-users to see if anyone pops up.
