I'd like include this into Cabal-1.2 which is scheduled with the next ghc release, so it can fearlessly be used when getting packages ready for GC 6.8.1.
I'd prefer we had more time to consider the syntax, as we don't want to be stuck with supporting whatever we come up with in the eleventh hour.
Me too, especially as this is a convenience rather than a necessity, and it affects the file syntax, which will have to be supported for a long time (unlike the API). Isn't it too late now, with GHC (including Cabal) at the RC stage?
