Since this has come up again in [1], I would like to re-raise the issue of being able to correlate float and complex types so that a func(float32) complex64/func(float64) complex128-like function can be written generically. This issue was raised in [2] in the last round of generics discussions with the example now in [3] and [4].
This wasn't addressed last time, and it does not appear to be addressed in the current document, although the Point method section comes sort of close[5] by doing essentially the same kind of conversion/constraint but with pointers, also the `ComplexAbs(type T Complex) T` type, however this does not handle both the cases below and achieves what it does in a heavier way.
