+1 from me. I have a lot of projects that suffer with 4 levels of vacuous
subdirectories just for this.
In theory cabal could support this on older GHC versions by copying all of the
files to

The problem we often have is that when you're writing code for a library that
lives deep in the module hierarchy, you end up needing a deep directory
structure, where the top few layers are all empty.
Thanks for all the feedback. Clearly opinion is divided on this one, so
I'll sit on it and think it through some more.
Cheers,

In principle I think it's a pity to lose External Core. It provides an
interface to GHC that is based on the simplest possibly connector (a text
file), and allows GHC's front end or back end to be used by other systems
written in different languages.
However, as you say, it has received no

No, the idea would be to use hs-source-dirs like this:
hs-source-dirs: A.B.C=src
Cabal just passes this in a -i option to GHC, so it almost Just Works,
Coming from Scala where I can basically structure my directory sources the
way I want I got a bit frustrated by Haskell rigidity here.
So definitely a +1, and I agree cabal support is quite important.
OTOH, I don't think Haskell should go in the way of allowing 'any'
structure (like scala), but
