TH Names can't be used in patterns

Here's an example where I try to use a Name (with double ticks) as a pattern:

{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}

foo :: Name -> ()
foo ''Int = ()

It fails with this error:

test.hs:4:5-9: Parse error in pattern: ''Int

Seems like a bug to me (if we can compare Names, why can't we pattern-match on them?).
