    -- 1. What to display inline in front of the variable name and whether it
    -- is expandable
    --
    -- 2. What fields are displayed when the value is expanded and what are
    -- their corresponding values
    --
    -- The former is answered by 'debugValue' / 'VarValue' and the latter by
    -- 'debugFields' / 'VarFields'.

-- if a value is already evaluated or not. This can be used to only display the evaluated

-- existential @a@ (the instance is found at runtime), or the generic runtime

-- | Boring types scaffolding.
--
-- Meant to be used like:
--
-- @
-- deriving via (BoringTy Int) instance (DebugView Int)
-- @
--
-- to derive a 'DebugView' for a type whose terms should always be fully forced
-- and displayed whole rather than as parts.
--
-- A boring type is one for which we don't care about the structure and would
-- rather see "whole" when being inspected. Strings and literals are a good
-- example, because it's more useful to see the string value than it is to see
-- a linked list of characters where each has to be forced individually.
