The following code does not compile. What was *rationale* behind slices 
being excluded from being nicely comparable by == like anything else ?

package main

import (
"fmt"
)

func main() {
var a, b []byte

fmt.Println("equals?", a == b)
}

Slices are _excluded_ from deep comparison by stating "Other values - 
numbers, bools, strings, and channels - are deeply equal if they are equal 
using Go's == operator." (from documentation of reflect.DeepEqual() 
<http://golang.org/pkg/reflect/#DeepEqual> ).


Sorry if it is FAQ of some sort, but I seems cannot find an answer to "why".

Thank you very much,
  Andrey
