It would be really nice to be able to either:

 1.) access STG from the GHC API and tell the compiler to stop at that
 point.

 2.) be able to dump STG to some sort of separate ".stg" file for further
 processing.

 This would enable other backends to be written, since all the heavy
 lifting has been done by the point its been converted to the spineless
 tagless g-machine and that representation is more suitable than Cmm for
 generating output for languages like JavaScript.
