This has bugged me about cabal, why does it have a built in concept of
any licenses at all? the data type should just be

newtype License = License String

This is actually a pervasive issue with the cabal codebase, a lot of
things are hard-coded as datatypes which should just be uninterpreted
thunks of data.
