One more tiny tiny point: please make it
-prelude-is
and NOT
--prelude-is
so that it matches with -main-is. (Note the number of dashes.)
In general, the anarchy of whether to use one dash or two is annoying, and I think that the parallel with -main-is helps to make the decision easy for this new flag.
Thanks!

Good call, David. It probably makes sense for --prelude-is MyPrelude to just act like -XNoImplicitPrelude when in the context
ghc --prelude-is MyPrelude MyPrelude.hs
That way it can be used as a flag in a cabal package that contains the prelude to be used.
I will try to start working on a patch for this in the next couple of weeks :)

Thanks!

+1. Sounds great. Agree with SPJ in that you should call it -prelude-is.
