Comment (by simonpj):

 > I fail to see how this would work for recursive examples like the
 program in comment:7

 Correct.  Computing `NonVoid( tau )` is an open-ended question. For some
 `tau`s (lke `Bar A`) it's easy; for others we could be more ambitious.
 It's probably undecidable in general.

 So we could start with something simple and become more ambitious later.
