I don't see how this is a problem at all. Navigating the "vacuous" structure
is as simple as pressing the tab key a few times. But if you change the
mapping convention between files and module names, you need to do it for all
tools, not just the compiler. I imagine all of the following tools would need
to know about it:
cabal, hoogle, haddock, happy, alex, hat, hsc2hs
and probably a few more. The feature seems like a very low power-to-weight
ratio, so -1 from me.
