Comment (by simonpj):

 BTW, a refactoring I'd love to see done is this: '''combine
 `RnEnv.HsDocContext` (used in the renamer) and `TcType.UserTypeCtxt` (used
 in the type checker)'''.

 Both are fairly big types; but they are practically the same already,
 except that the former uses `RdrName`s while the latter uses `Name`s.  But
 that's accidental; in fact the renamer could perfectly well construct
 contexts with `Name`s in them.

 I think that everything else is just accidental differences.
