So since the goal is interoperability of source files then perhaps we should also have a section somewhere with interoperability guidelines for implementations that do store Haskell programs as OS files.

I think a set of interoperability guidelines is a great idea. It seems these guidelines are already followed by GHC, Cabal, Hackage, Jhc and possibly others. Shall we consider this the proposal instead of just the encoding part?
