There already is a ticket that covers what you want, I believe:

http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/1476

As I understand it, it won't be included in GHC 6.10, but definitely not dead forever, especially splicing types.  Indeed, a small bit of hacking  (for my own amusement) on a recent snapshot of 6.9 got it partly working, as the implementation in GHC was already mostly there.
