Since almost all of the TextShow instances are provided as orphans, the don't show up in the haddocks. This is similar to an issue in aeson that I noticed.

I'm 99% sure this is a GHC bug. My reasoning stems from the discussion here, since someone else had trouble looking up orphan instances with the GHC API.

I'm going to close this issue, since I'm not willing to refactor huge chunks of this library to accommodate what is a proper Haddock bug. See my comment here.

This issue has been fixed upstream in Haddock, and will land in the Haddock bundled with GHC 8.4.1. Proof:
