  "textContent": "A new proposal Unordered redundant commas is started reviewing by Committee.\nSo it is time to upvote/downvote in first comment and any other feedback is welcomed.\n\nThis topic was discussed over decade and we have 3 groups of opinions where redundant commas could be allowed:\n\n  1. Anything is better then nothing\n  2. Everything or nothing\n  3. If something, then a simple and obvious rule to distinguish when it is allowed must exists.\n\n\n\nThis proposal from 3rd group: we allow redundant commas (leading commas, trailing commas and extra commas) in UnOrdered structures:\n\n  * import and export lists and sub-lists\n  * deriving and default clauses\n  * records\n\n\n\nLists and tuples are not part of Proposal.",
