I fear that adding a bunch of special cases will easily snowball into an unmaintainable mess as more and more users try to get their favorite case into the tree. We are already beginning to see this with requests like #13718. I would much rather have a general mechanism for integrating with GHCi, allowing users to more easily extend and customize its functionality. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13743#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

I'm all for that -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13743#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
