New description:

 Consider

 Bar.hs
 {{{
 module Bar where
 }}}

 Main.hs
 {{{
 import Bar

 main :: IO ()
 main = print ""
 }}}

 `ghci Main.hs -Weverything` produces

 {{{
 ...
 GHCi, version 8.7.20190113: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help

 <interactive>:1:1: warning: [-Wmissing-local-signatures]
     Polymorphic local binding with no type signature:
       _compileParsedExpr :: forall a. GHC.Types.IO a -> GHC.Types.IO a

 <interactive>:1:1: warning: [-Wmissing-import-lists]
     The module `Prelude' does not have an explicit import list

 <no location info>: warning: [-Wmissing-home-modules]
     Modules are not listed in command line but needed for compilation:
         Bar
 [1 of 2] Compiling Bar              ( Bar.hs, interpreted )
 ...
 }}}

 Those three errors have nothing to do with my code, and seem to be related
 to the internals of how GHCi works. It would be nice to hide all three.
