In the lines of François suggestion, it would be great if ppx_import
could some kind of "batch" import for modules. Imagine you want to add
show to a whole module, you could do:

[%import: M
  [@attach all [[@deriving show]]]]

or

module M = [%import M ....]

Another option is to teach deriving about modules:

module M = M
[@@deriving sexp]

but I am not sure what would be the best way to avoid all the
boilerplate I currently have [would had submitted an issue otherwise]

Best,
Emilio
