Comment(by simonmar):

 This has a similar flavour to typechecking pattern bindings, where we
 decided we wanted the static semantics to be defined by the desugaring
 ([http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/haskell-
 prime/wiki/SpecifyPatternBindingSemantics]).  I know nothing about the
 typechecker, but perhaps this is a two birds/one stone situation?
