How about intermediate half-unboxed types? (If there's an impl for @X, can you directly call its methods on @@X?)
No. Under this proposal, you would have to do (*x).foo() in that case. I was trying to avoid looping through types, unboxing a step at a time and scanning for impls. That seemed to me to be very close to selecting the most specific type, something we have hitherto avoided. But I guess the loop doesn't have to stop. You could scan all the way through and at the end there should still be only one match. I'm not sure which I prefer. I guess I'd basically be happy either way.
