Comment:
Post-processing could be done just by taking stderr, rather than requiring
any GHC support. I don't think it's worth implementing this until someone
has actually written such a postprocessor, to show that there is some
demand.
I think if you want to do this, you would be better off using the GHC API
and getting the errors as a datatype. To really get good errors, you'd
probably need to integrate even more closely with GHC.
