Yes you need to re-install Haddock if you re-install GHC, but that's just like any other library (think of Haddock as a library). I think it's unlikely that anyone will want to have multiple Haddock installations, but if they do then they'll just have to manually rename the Haddock binary after installing it.
Isn't that just the problem we're talking about? It is not about wanting to have multiple Haddock installations. After the switch to Haddock 2, there will _have to be_ one Haddock installation per GHC installation.

Not necessarily - how often do you need to run Haddock against something other than the libraries for your most recent installed GHC?

If you are a library author, I will want to run it with multiple GHC versions all the time. You may have multiple development compilers and then you will want to build distributions for specific compiler versions (other than your development compiler(s)), too.
