Given the code:

     msg1 := &msg{foo: bar, baz: quux}
     msg2 := &msg{foo: bar}

There's no (documented?) gofmt pattern that will match both. Instead, you apply two
different ones:

    gofmt -r '&msg{a} -> &anotherMsg{a}' -w *.go
    gofmt -r '&msg{a, c} -> &anotherMsg{a, c}' -w *.go

If it's doable, it would nice to have one.

Comment 6:

This is going beyond the pattern-matching abilities currently present. Also, there's an
easy work-around per your own suggestion. Will not fix.

Status changed to Unfortunate.
