Okay I think I'm hitting some recursive types now. It's not fully general but the user can always overload behavior when needed. For the tests I think I'm doing something wrong in that I don't understand |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I'm a bit wary of this code mapping over T.parameters as there were quite a few issues doing a similar thing elsewhere.
In that code we had to check for whether each element in T.parameters was assigned, I don't know if that's a concern here or not.
See https://github.com/JuliaDebug/Cthulhu.jl/pull/508/files for that code and some issues with previous versions of that code are #491, #492, #494.
