technology preview:: 

    GHC will occassionally ship features advertised as being in a *technology
    preview* state. Such features are generally opt-in in nature (e.g. new
    language extensions) and may have various shortcomings. These may include
    known bugs (which we will try to document), lacking optimisation, and
    unhandled interactions with other language features. As such, behavior
    of such features may change in the future. However, we do expect features
    to converge to non-preview state over the course of a few GHC major releases.
