Comment:

 Thanks for the suggestion.

 However, looking at http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-
 cafe/2012-August/102744.html this proposal seems to me to make the
 language more complex (in particular, which bindings share a scope is less
 transparent), for little or no gain, so I'm closing as wontfix.
