Most certainly. This is a major pain point, especially for structs with many 
members.

Yes, though I don’t particularly care about compiler magic like some, 
especially in such a useful case.

I believe Scala with synthesize the equivalent of Equatable conformance for 
class cases, and I’ve used Mantle in Objective-C, which did the same 
dynamically for types which inherited from the right types.

Studied it when originally proposed, glanced for a rearview.
