I agree, these problems should be resolved before we introduce this feature.

I'd rather have a more general approach, where all global types implement
support for merging two distinct instances.

Also, I'm not sure if this is something we should introduce this late in the
game.

We should try to get 0.85 out asap ... I've been too busy lately, but I hope
to find a few hours next week ...

I definitely don't mean to sound disrespectful here. I appreciate the work
Martin has been doing here !
