Description

In some parts of my project I'm using NamedFieldPuns GHC extension, and on some occasions, I'm getting a whole lot of symbols out of a record, e.g.

runSupervisorLoop :: SupervisorEnv -> IO ()
runSupervisorLoop env@SupervisorEnv { supervisorId, supervisorName, supervisorStatusVar, supervisorQueue, notifyEvent }

Ideally, I would like Brittany to do a newline per field name when the list of symbols is bigger than the max column setting.

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start by locating Brittany's handling of NamedFieldPuns record patterns and the max-column setting, then add coverage for the shown SupervisorEnv pattern; done means fields wrap one per line when the list exceeds the configured width.
