Comment (by duairc):
I understand that. Like I said, I can see why `Eq1`, etc. are useful in
their own right. But the questions I was really asking are:
1. Do we care about Haskell 98 compatibility in base?
2. If not, could I add an instance e.g., `Semigroup (f (g a)) => Semigroup
(Compose f g a)`? There are a bunch of non-Haskell 98 instances I would
like to add, especially for `Compose`. Some of these could be made into
Haskell 98-compatible instances with more `Eq1`-style helper type classes,
but some could not.
