[Haskell-cafe] generalized list comprehensions

[Johannes Waldmann]

Looking at this funny new feature
http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.10.1/html/users_guide/syntax-extns.html#generalised-list-comprehensions
I have just one question - why doesn't this work with the do-notation?

I avoid list comprehensions because I feel that
"return" belongs at the end, not in front.

If I recall correctly, "putting the SQL-select where it belongs"
is a slogan used by Hijlsberg to justify the LINQ syntax for C#,
and of course he is right.

Now ghc copies LINQ (syntactically), but stops halfway?

Just wondering - J.W.
