Comment:
If we want an IDE to be able to do it then we probably want the
functionality to be in the GHC API, at which point GHCi may as well do it.
I don't think looking for the installed docs is a good idea; better would
be to put the info in the `.hi` file (or another file installed alongside
the `.o` and `.hi` files; perhaps it would even make sense to spit the
parsed source out into a file, so that we can also do things like :list?).
