Thomas Schilling:
I tried to plot GHC's dependency graph but it just became a grey/black
cloud.  A hierarchical module space could clean things up a bit.

Compilers are (in)famous for that property. Using a hierarchical module space is not going to change anything.

In fact, one drawback of using a hierarchy is that it does suggest (by way of module names) a hierarchy that the code does not have. For example, I believe there are going to be cyclic imports between files in different subtrees. That may make the situation actually more confusing than it is now.
