This one is legitimately for ll-next... I don't think I have seen any
mention of Koka here or elsewhere until today...

This is an interesting little language.

Its author, Daan Leijen, worked previously on Morrow (LtU dscussions
http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/174 and
http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/1119) that used row polymorphism
for records with first-class labels (i.e. typed duck typing). It was
very promising and a shame it didn't go too far. The mechanism behind
effect unification in koka is an extension of that research.
