Comment:

 This is a bug tracker for GHC, so one doesn't need to be a member of any
 Haskell Committee or such to open/close/modify tickets. Open Source is
 largely based on mutual agreement, not on organizational hierarchies.

 If you want to propose changes to the Haskell language per se, you can
 open a pull request on https://github.com/haskell/rfcs, but probably you
 should better start on the haskell-cafe mailing list to test your ideas.
 Anyway, for the current ticket at hand such a proposal would very probably
 have no success: You propose adding some kind of symbolic computation, but
 Haskell doesn't aim to be a computer algebra system like MATLAB or
 Mathematica.
