I mean that people us $ for purely syntactical purposes. If an editor is going to make refactorings and retain a certain sense of style, then the tool needs to know that $ is sometimes to be used. The refactoring (or otherwise) tool now has to be aware of the syntax of Haskell and special symbols in the Prelude.
It seems unlikely that making the tool aware of ($) is much more (or less) difficult than making it aware of when it can omit brackets from a multiline do, lambda etc.
