Comment:

 Upon further thought, my needs are already addressed with the
 [http://hackage.haskell.org/package/template-haskell-2.11.1.0/docs
 /Language-Haskell-TH-Syntax.html#v:lookupValueName lookupValueName] and
 [http://hackage.haskell.org/package/template-haskell-2.11.1.0/docs
 /Language-Haskell-TH-Syntax.html#v:lookupTypeName lookupTypeName]
 functions, which allow me to search in particular namespaces.

 I now realize that the [http://hackage.haskell.org/package/template-
 haskell-2.11.1.0/docs/Language-Haskell-TH-Syntax.html#v:reify Haddocks for
 reify] even point this out - d'oh!
