Comment (by RyanGlScott):
Another possibility: we allow the use of multiple `deriving`s after a
datatype. Something like:
{{{#!hs
newtype Foo = Foo Bar
deriving (A, B, C)
deriving builtin (D, E, F)
deriving newtype (G, H, I)
deriving default (J, K, L)
}}}
Pros: this would be a lot more consistent with the treatment for
standalone `deriving` declarations. Cons: we'd have to significantly
rework the way we parse `data`/`newtype` declarations.
