i'm don't sure that Tomasz means, but at least me imagined smth like
the following:

data Struct = Struct { a::Int,
                       b::Int
                     }

c (Struct a b) = (a*)

i.e. datastructure contains only non-functional fields which includes all
necessary arguments for virtual functional fields
