Struct deep equality not implemented

[Chriscbr]

I tried this:

struct Cat {
  name: str;
  age: num;
}

let cat1 = Cat { name: "Mittens", age: 3 };
let cat2 = Cat { name: "Mittens", age: 3 };

assert(cat1 == cat2); // fields and types match

This happened:

ERROR: assertion failed: '(cat1 === cat2)'

target/equality.wsim.725637.tmp/.wing/preflight.js:24
       "age": 3,}
       ;
>>     {((cond) => {if (!cond) throw new Error(`assertion failed: '(cat1 === cat2)'`)})((cat1 === cat2))};
       {((cond) => {if (!cond) throw new Error(`assertion failed: '(cat1 !== cat3)'`)})((cat1 !== cat3))};
     }

I expected this:

It compiles

Is there a workaround?

Write a custom equality function that checks if each field is equal
