No problem :-)

Ok, I understand now.  So clearly we just need better editing tools for
Haskell, which I guess is part of your point.

By the way, there are many Haskell programmers who prefer to write their
programs like this:

  let { a = x
      ; b = y
      ; c = z
      }
    in ...

which arguably has its merits.
