I want to generate my documentation with the following options:

Is there a way of doing this in Cabal? I didn't think there was as looking at the code, neither prehaddock or posthaddock hooks would help:
I think you're right about the hooks. Cabal ought to be changed to add the package options itself, as it has the information (build-depends). In general you'd need to do a transitive closure, but one could also require authors to list all packages containing modules they use directly. Another problem is that some of the build-depends packages might not contain libraries. The CVS version of Haddock, if compiled with GHC >= 6.4, has an option --use-package as a shortcut for -i. On the other hand I think --source should be an option to setup haddock.
