At the moment the standard way to use the GHC API is something like _ <- load LoadAllTargets modSum <- getModSummary mn p <- parseModule modSum And likewise if renamed or typechecked ASTs are needed. But the `load` step already does all those phases. So, would there be any objection to modifying the ModSummary to possibly retain those artifacts, configurable via a DynFlag? I would expect the flag would default to retaining none, but could then either provide for returning all artifacts, or just for the targets explicitly listed in the `setTargets` call (i.e. not the full `depanal` result).
