Description
I typed in the search field: f (g a) -> g (f a) but hoogle didn't find any results.
However, if I type distribute, one of the search results is distribute :: (Distributive g, Functor f) => f (g a) -> g (f a) which has the type I was looking for originally.
Why doesn't hoogle find it? Am I doing something wrong?

Research direction
Reproduce the two searches on hoogle.haskell.org: f (g a) -> g (f a) and distribute. Compare how the site parses and matches the type query with the result returned for distribute; done means either correcting the search behavior or documenting why the equivalent type query is not supported.
