Is there any reason QuickCheck specifically requires containers >= 0.5? Perhaps its lower bound could be relaxed.

It is sbv-2.2 that has that constraint.

On the other hand, if installing a package is going to break people's package environments, maybe documenting the package on hackage isn't so important.
