Actually independent deriving would help a lot but am not sure of the
syntax.
could it be something like
derive (Ord,Eq,Read,Show,Typeable) (BlogEntry Name Title Body Emai)
Perhaps this is what Neil Mitchell was suggesting with Derive that I was
not understanding. If I can use derive like this without a
pre-processor that would be very nice.

it wouldn't help to get rid of deriving, but perhaps the new
'standalone deriving' might help to separate out all that deriving
stuff, keeping the data type definitions themselves less cluttered?
