So I've been looking at layout processing, and a question comes up. In the Haskell rules as I understand them, semicolon auto-insertion is tied to curly brace insertion. If a programmer hand-inserts the curly brace, they are necessarily taking responsibility for the semicolons.
But automatic semicolon insertion could be done even when the curly brace has been inserted by hand. It simplifies the layout state machine a bit if this is done. Is there a reason *not* to do so? shap
