there will be people who want normalised types, and others will want
the original types, so I expect that we will not agree on one
particular behavior.

But since the usual scheme is that haddock should print what is written
in the source, if there is something, then the InstanceSigs extension
should help you:
https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/users_guide/type-cl
ass-extensions.html#instance-sigs

Have you checked if haddock is maybe already paying attention to such
signatures?

Thanks for the type Joachim, I hadn't thought about that extension. I'll give that a try and see if that gives me the output I desire.
