Comment (by adamse):

 I think you're describing the current behaviour:

 {{{
 $ cat T.hs
 module T (f) where

 import Data.Monoid

 f :: Int
 f = 2

 g :: Double
 g = 2

 $ ghci
 GHCi, version 8.6.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/  :? for help
 :l Loaded GHCi configuration from /Users/adam/.ghci
 Prelude> :l T
 [1 of 1] Compiling T                ( T.hs, interpreted )

 ...

 Ok, one module loaded.
 *T> g
 2.0
 it :: Double
 *T> :t Sum
 Sum :: a -> Sum a
 }}}
