CoflatMap for Sync

[ChristopherDavenport]

It appears that any Applicative can form a CoflatMap

This personally strikes me as a useful value to have perhaps to generalize an Action describing an Action, but more so in effect suspension for things that implement Sync like Fs2's Stream which in order to get concurrency Stream(1,2,3).map(i => Stream(i)).joinUnbounded could instead utilized Stream(1,2,3).coflatten.joinUnbounded however I think this is a generally good thing to have available. The PR linked from cats can bring this easily for all Sync with the next Milestone.

Would this be something you would entertain?

👍 I don't see the harm

@ChristopherDavenport do you think this is still relevant, are you interested in doing some proposal or should we close it?

Spring cleaning 🙂

I think we can remove it. The consensus seems to be, if we want it for a type, it should use the method in it for cats.
