 Hackage currently only contains haddock documentation for "libraries".

 However, it'd be really cool to be able to see the source code of
 "executable" only projects as well. If the project is not haddock'ized,
 then a simple hscolor'ed html source base would be fine as well (like in
 GitHub).

 One of the more common use cases of Hackage is to look at other people's
 code, even for projects that you wouldn't download. This can go along way
 in making that much more pleasurable.

 Alternatively, the user can specify a cabal flag to indicate if he wants
 browsable source code to be produced in case of executable only projects.
