Cool!
Is there *anything* Haskell *can't* do?
Well, I haven't found a way to emulate polymorphics kinds yet, and I feel like
I need them. Other than than - probably no.

Sure you can. I just tried the following, and it compiled without

The usual warnings about orphan instances apply, but the purpose of
the Text.Show.Functions module is to provide a standard Show instance
for functions so that libraries (e.g., QuickCheck) don't declare
conflicting instances.
