Comment (by simonpj):
Oh yes, silly me. The point is that in a class instance declaration you
only get to write ''one'' associated type instance declaration, so there
is no point in having a type index that is not also a class index.
The syntax for distinguishing type ''indices'' from ''type parameters'' is
horrible, but it's hard to think of something better.
