Wait for version 4 :-) - I've added _ 's for wildcard types, _ ->
Document -> _ would give you what you want. I've also  made it so a
search for "Document" can give you all the types which involve
document in any way.

Version 4 will be capable of indexing all of hackage, so hopefully
that can be done.
