Speaking of which, when trying to obfuscate some code once, I was
annoyed that I couldn't remove the whitespace around my module decl:
I have to write:
module G where
not:
module(G)where
Similarly with import decls. It's a little inconsistent, I guess,
considering that in most other places I can think of, outside of the
module system, parens instead of spaces is valid.
It's a very small issue, but does anyone have any opinions on this
no-parens rule when lexing the module system?
