FWIW, I like this approach too. Syntactically, maybe it would better
to have instead
   func({_,X/float,_,Z/float}, [{_,Y/float,A/float} | _]) ->...
so that it's similar to the one used in binaries? Of course, it's
little meaning in discussing details for a proposal tha has alrady
been rejected :-)
