I had a somewhat halfway idea for that, make explicit quantification on
term-bound type signatures required, but not for let-bound ones.


foo = (id :: forall a . a -> a)

foo :: a -> a
foo = id

this would solve the scoped variables problem if let bound type
signatures always shadow the names of scoped type variables.
