It's already possible (although I can't tell the exact flag off the top of
my head — look at the GHC docs for details).

hi,
i may certainly be missing something, as i only used cpp in haskell for conditional compilation. having said that:
i'd like to have (instead of LANGUAGE CPP) the following extension.
LANGUAGE FilterWithExternalProgram my_cpp
that would make it possible to use a cpp implementation implemented separately from ghc and would leave it to the ecosystem to implement best practices (i.e. a haskell implementation of cpp or the proposed declarative extension).
i _guess_ that should also make it easier to use compile-to-haskell programs like she. maybe a hypothetical template haskell alternative might also work with it.
