Top level module identifiers shadow imported identifiers
Let's try this out as a language pragma and see if we like it?
Artificial example:
{-# LANGUAGE TopLevelShadowsImports #-}
import Data.Monoid
(<>) = mappend
main = putStrLn ("Hello" <> " " <> "World")Current behavior: error: ambiguous occurrence of (<>) Desired behavior: uses top-level definition of (<>), prints "hello world"
