Comment (by simonpj):
What is the "change" that you advocate? The one that this ticket started
with, namely adding view patterns to TH?
I have not looked into it in detail, but I don't think it's hard. As
usual for TH, it means
* Design the TH syntax data types
* Write code in GHC to convert between TH and HsSyn
No rocket science. The trouble is that these TH extensions never get to
the top of my priority list! But nagging is good... that ups the
priority. I also always hope that someone else will to the work and send
a patch!
