Similar formulas and their analogs in intuitionistic second-order 
propositional calculus are discussed in my paper in the Annals Pure 
Appl. Logic 27 (1984) 155-164. That paper was motivated by Higgs's 
observation that every monic  Omega -> Omega  in a topos is an involution, 
see Peter Johnstone's paper "Automorphisms of Omega" in Alg. Universalis 
9 (1979) 1-7.
