Just to sort-of get the ball rolling: I don't actually have a lot of a stake in Cabal or cabal-install myself; I mostly work on meta stuff (nursemaiding GHA, maintaining and enhancing workflows and Mergify config, etc.). But there's a similarly "meta" vision I have: better interaction with the real stakeholders, to wit, the users. What are *their* wishes and needs?
