I am opening this issue after our discussion.

Main.hs should not live in src/. The convention in the Haskell community is
to have your library live in src/ and your executable in app/.

Cheers!

I'll take care of this at the next larger feature branch merge.

Can you point to some examples for this convention? The Main.hs didn't always reside in src/, but I moved it there after looking at other packages (I guess pandoc was one of those).

Yes, Pandoc, with some other high-profile stuff, have always done things "their own way" for quite some time. :)

Regarding more “pedestrian” open-source projects, I can point to mini-lambda, top-apps, causal-haskell.
Unfortunately I can't really point you to the closed-source projects I had the opportunity to work on, so you'll have to believe me on those. :P
