Comment(by goldfire):
I, for one, like the idea of fold and unfold operations in the TH library.
How would one refer to the kind {{{Nat}}}? Is it {{{PromotedT (mkName
"Nat")}}} or {{{ConT (mkName "Nat")}}} (both used in a context expecting a
kind)? Does the algorithm in Convert.lhs check for consistent usage of
{{{ConT}}} vs {{{PromotedT}}}?
