I noticed that GHCi forgets all defined variables after loading any modules - this can be a (probably minor) problem. I don't know how it works in Python, but in perl the code in eval is executed in current lexical scope. I think it could be difficult to emulate this in a language like Haskell. Hmmm, GHCi seems to do that internally, so maybe it could be possible, but the resulting extension would work only in interpreted mode.
