From goldfire:
> Add a new command to GHCi, :binfo (for "beginner info") (please suggest
a better name) that is like :info but presents different information. It
suppresses in-scope instances, but attempts to specialize a function's
type and presents specializations, using heuristics. So when we say :binfo
find, we'll see Foldable t => (a -> Bool) -> t a -> Maybe a but also (a ->
Bool) -> [a] -> Maybe a.
