> Can you give some hypothetical example code ?
type 'a key = ?
type binding = B : 'a key * 'a -> binding
type dict = binding list
let lookup : dict -> 'a key -> 'a option = fun d k -> ?
Is it possible to specify a `'a key` type that allows `lookup` (with the obvious semantics) to be written ? This is trivial to achieve with a universal type, see http://mlton.org/PropertyList
Best,
Daniel
