well if you need generics that badly, I think you could improvise with this github.com/leeview/godsl/. My feeling is that in time Go will become a more multipurpose language than it is today. Even Rob Pike said that he and other authors have a list on which add everything that they would like to change in Go and consider it for Go 2.0 or Go 3.0 which could be not backward compatible with Go1.* (this is similar to what D lang did, D2 is a nice improvement on the lessons learned from D1).
