I've long wanted a "display it like I typed it" option, e.g. if I typed 'Module.function' the link would look exactly like that.
I've also often wished that unimported but fully qualified modules like 'Data.List.partition' would link even if Data.List is not imported. I suppose similarly to the way that ""s "blind link" without having to know about the module in question. And speaking of ""s, I've always wondered why double quotes were needed for module names, and why single quotes around capitalized words isn't sufficient. But I also always assumed that the answers were probably all "not enough people sending patches" so they just went on my personal list of things to look at if I ever had some extra time.
