Evil lisp commands add indentation in Haskell mode

[rpglover64]

In haskell-mode, running any evil lisp command, either by key binding or by name (e.g. SPC k w) will cause the current line to be indented one additional space.

evil lisp commands may have different behaviors in non-lisps, to achieve SPC k w I suggest using SPC v s ), repeat v until you get the whole thing you want to wrap.
( will insert spaces between the parens.

Yes, that works for wrapping, but e.g. SPC k r (evil-lisp-state-sp-raise-sexp) doesn't have a nice vim equivalent. Also, the note at the end of this section of the spacemacs documentation suggests that the evil lisp state keybindings are intended to be useful in editing things that aren't only lisp.

This might be an issue with smartparens; it looks like calling sp-raise-sexp directly has the same buggy behavior.

[syl20bnr]

The only smartparens functions trying to work in other languages are behind SPC k ``, these functions are called hybrid. There is no raise` available unfortunately it would require some kind of awareness of the underlying AST.

[rpglover64]

But raise does exactly what I want, except that it also inserts exactly 1 space every time it is called.

Also, reading the smartparens documentation on its hybrid commands, that's not the impression I got; specifically, I got the impression that the hybrid commands are for manipulating "hybrid sexp"s, which are distinct from "sexp"s in a way that makes them more useful in non-lisp languages, but that if you wanted to manipulate "sexp"s, you could do so just fine using the standard commands.

Finally, calling the hybrid commands results in the same incorrect behavior.

This looks like it's a bug in haskell-mode, so I've filed it there: haskell/haskell-mode/issues/796.
