Okay fine. I’m curious if we ever should be able to extend existentials. (Could 
be really handy.)

typealias FooView = UIView & Foo

extension FooView {
     func foo() { .. }
}

// vs.
extension UIView where Self : Foo { .. }

If I understand correctly, extension of a typealias should be strictly 
equivalent to extension of type on the right:

extension Any<class> {
    func foo()
}
And  
Any<...> are not nominal types, so until we additionally allow extensions for 
non-nominal types, this will not compile.

Just imagining the future. Iff this request will made into the language and we 
had typealias AnyObject = Any<class>, would the following be valid?

extension AnyObject {
    func foo()
}
