+Someone asked on IRC how one could access the intermediate Requests (resp. Responses) 
+produced (resp. received) by client functions derived using servant-client.
+My response to such inquiries is: to extend `servant-client` in an ad-hoc way (e.g for testing or debugging
+purposes), use `Servant.Client.Free`. This recipe shows how.

+Such clients are "client functions without a backend", so to speak,

 So that's it. Using `Free` we can evaluate servant clients step-by-step, and

+is a little simpler than defining a custom `RunClient` instance, especially
+for those cases where it is handy to have the full sequence of client calls
+and responses available for us to inspect, since `RunClient` only gives us
+access to one `Request` or `Response` at a time.
+
+On the other hand, a "batch collection" of requests and/or responses can be achieved
+with both free clients and a custom `RunClient` instance rather easily, for example 
+by using a `Writer [(Request, Response)]` monad.
