Description
Haskell's record syntax can be a useful user-facing feature. We should implement some variant of it - either as a syntactic sugar (as in Haskell), or actual record types (in which case this relates to #46).
Suggested by QuviQ.

Research direction
Start by reading the issue and related issue #46, then compare the proposed Haskell-style syntactic sugar with actual record types. The issue names no implementation files or tests, so first establish which variant is wanted and define acceptance criteria before locating the relevant compiler entry points.
