One disadvantage of this scheme is that it obscures the difference
between the parsing combinators and the pretty-printing combinators.

We wouldn't want to make name of the HughesPJ module too generic, as
there are also other libraries of pretty printing combinators out there,
such as Daan Leijen's PPrint.
