I prefer terminator style, because that simplifies re-ordering of lines:

module (
    export1,
    export2,
    ) where

I second to avoid a big Types module. I propose to define one module per 
major type, name the module after the type, such that you can make use of 
qualification, like Text.concat, Window.open, Path.join, Matrix.transpose. 
You may still need Private modules in order to break import cycles and 
share secret definitions between the modules.
