What's more idiomatic in Haskell? I'm writing the data structures for my program (a toy compiler), and I'm trying to understand what's the best way to define the AST:

Current code

data RExpr = RExpr Location InnerRExpr
data InnerRExpr = RLExpr LExpr | RConstant Constant | RMathExpr MathExpr | FCall Id [RExpr]


Alternative A

data RExpr = RLExpr Location LExpr
           | RConstant Location Constant
           | RMathExpr Location MathExpr
           | FCall Location Id [RExpr]


Alternative B

data RExpr = RLExpr { loc::Location, getLexpr::LExpr}
           | RConstant { loc::Location, getConstant::Constant}
           | RMathExpr { loc::Location, getExpr::MathExpr}
           | FCall { loc::Location, id::Id, params::[RExpr] }


Honestly I'm not satisfied with either of the three options, because the current code means that I have an extraneous object in the AST which doesn't really mean anything, alternative A means that I have to pattern match every time I want to extract the location (or write a boilerplate function that does it) and alternative B means cluttering the global namespace with functions whose names are likely to collide.

Suggestions?
I tend towards the former, and then use a lens or traversal to extract the location.

import Control.Lens

class HasLocation t where
  loc :: Lens' t Location

instance HasLocation RExpr where
  loc f (RLExpr l e)    = f l &lt;&amp;&gt; \l' -&gt; RLExpr l' e
  loc f (RConstant l c) = f l &lt;&amp;&gt; \l' -&gt; RConstant l' c
  loc f (RMathExpr l m) = f l &lt;&amp;&gt; \l' -&gt; RMathExpr l' m
  loc f (FCall l i xs) = f l &lt;&amp;&gt; \l' -&gt; FCall l' i xs


With the class you can overload the use of loc for other data types. Because it is a lens you can use it to get/set/modify the location with a large vocabulary without cluttering your namespace.
