Of course! I will have a play this weekend. Thanks for the advice.

I use ghc-mod for vim and it sorta supports this... by adding
arbitrary flags to GHC in your vimrc:

let g:ghcmod_ghc_options =
['-package-conf=/Source/alphaHeavy/build/package.conf.d']

Providing cabal-dev maintains a package database it should work there
too. With a little vim-fu you could probably discover the most correct
package database automatically.
