It does not. File A/B/C/D.hs can be module A.B.C.D, or module B.C.D which
happened to be placed in a directory A, or C.D etc. It's ambiguous.

I'm not saying that I want to have to write full paths, but I see no other
choice.

It's confusing. If at all, it should be the opposite, analogous
to . and .. directories. But it doesn't look clear either.
