One nice thing would be to write something like rlwrap
that would work everywhere Haskell does. Even more
sofisticated behavior could come from some comunication
from the api, using standard OS facilities (like a file
with an updated list of completions, or something more
clever).

(For those interested: rlwrap is available in cygwin.
It used to work very well on old ghci, when line
editing wasn't available.)

Best,
