I think class aliases might be a nice idea too.  But we don't have any
concrete experience with implementations that support them.  Haskell' is
primarily about standarding the current state-of-the-art, so this is why
the idea is unlikely to be adopted.  But it would be great if someone
were to implement it now anyway, and then it might make it into the next
language standard.
