Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 Replying to [comment:7 int-index]:
 > When #15760 is fixed, `decomposeType` in `th-abstraction` that you
 linked would have to start to care about parentheses as well

 Egads, I hadn't thought about that. That's a very good point, and I agree
 that it would be best to try and ship these fixes together.

 > And since the merge window for 8.8 closes in a couple of days

 Wow. Really? That deadline crept up faster than I ever thought possible...

 > then a more realistic target is probably 8.10 – what do you think?

 Sure. I'd be fine with putting this off later than 8.8 if need be (be it
 8.10, 8.12, or whenever).
