Comment(by igloo):
Personally, I'm not sure the extra benefit is worth the extra complexity
in the language. Like you say, type classes have already solved a lot of
the problem.
Also, I don't think it works well with multi-argument functions. I'd
rather write
{{{
BS.append x y
}}}
than
{{{
x.append y
}}}
