Summary: Exact types in type parameters

Initial Comment:
It would be nice to have a syntax for type parameters
to indicate that a parameter must be exactly of a given
type. I'll use "#" as the syntax here, since we use "#"
with similar meaning in method implementations.

class Foo<#int T> {
  T bar;
}

would be equivalent to:

class Foo<T | T <: int, int <: T> {
  T bar;
}

This feature has been implemented (in the form I presented
in the comments) since Nice 0.9.9. Closing.

I'm currently working on supporting
  class Foo extends Bar<int>

(I suppose this is intended when the class extends a
parameterized one, since otherwise the type parameter is not
needed for anything: if T=int, then you can use int instead
of T anywhere inside the declaration)

Why not use rather:

  class Foo extends Bar<int>

This looks nicer to me!
