Reflect: a specialized inductive type for

relating propositions and booleans, as popularized by the Ssreflect library.

Inductive reflect (P : Prop) : bool -> Set :=
  | ReflectT : P -> reflect P true
  | ReflectF : ~ P -> reflect P false.
Hint Constructors reflect : bool.

Interest: a case on a reflect lemma or hyp performs clever unification, and leave the goal in a convenient shape (a bit like case_eq).
Relation with iff :

Lemma reflect_iff : forall P b, reflect P b -> (P<->b=true).

Lemma iff_reflect : forall P b, (P<->b=true) -> reflect P b.

It would be nice to join reflect_iff and iff_reflect in a unique iff statement, but this isn't allowed since iff is in Prop.
Reflect implies decidability of the proposition

Lemma reflect_dec : forall P b, reflect P b -> {P}+{~P}.

Reciprocally, from a decidability, we could state a reflect as soon as we have a bool_of_sumbool.
