>   data Foo1 = Foo1 {size :: Int ...}

>   data Foo2 = Foo2 {size :: Int ...}

>   f x y z = let size = Foo1..size 
>             in

How does this save you typing over:

data Foo1 = Foo1 { foo1_size :: Int }
data Foo2 = Foo2 { foo2_size :: Int }

f x y z = let size = foo1_size
          in
          (size x) + (size y) + (Foo2..size z)

also, this would lead to highly ambiguous parses, i think.
