Ok, I buy the argument that if we're already compiling everything, we
shouldn't have to re-typecheck it all in Haddock. Of course if you're
*not* already compiling everything, then the argument doesn't apply:

My knowledge of precisely how haddock works is somewhat fuzzy in that it
arises from a series of discussions a couple of years back.
My observation was mostly that I run 'cabal install' it goes through all
the modules building my .hi files, etc. Then I run cabal haddock and it

I think that if we did, we could do some great things:
