Data.List documentation improvements

He has implemented something similar, see
http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~ndm/projects/filepath/System-FilePath-Version_0_11.html#v%3AreplaceExtension
for an example - click on the source link and it hops to the right
place (using HsColour to colourise and tag the source file).

I was more thinking of an "AJAX style" thing where the documentation
appears in the same page, rather than linking to a separate page which
contains it.

Thanks
