Comment (by thomie):

 Replying to [comment:2 nomeata]:
...
It might work for modules that are imported from packages.
Like this you mean?

 {{{#!hs
 import Data.Lis
 }}}

 {{{
 Test.hs:1:8:
     Could not find module ‘Data.Lis’
     Perhaps you meant
       Data.List (from base-4.8.2.0)
       Data.Bits (from base-4.8.2.0)
       Data.DList (from dlist-0.7.1.2@23izrBUDDH96xJKcDju2CZ)
     Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.
 }}}
