 There seems to be widespread agreement that the current situation wrt
 records is unacceptable, but the official GHC policy is that there are too
 many good ideas to choose from - so nothing gets done! I hence humbly
 propose that [http://www.cs.uu.nl/~daan/download/papers/scopedlabels.pdf]
 be adapted to GHC. In my naivete, I assume that porting an existing
 implementation would be much easier than starting from scratch.
