Comment (by duncan):

 So the question is how would we support this extension? Perhaps by
 specifying a module name for {{{main-is:}}} ? Would that be
 distinguishable from a file name? It wouldn't have a file extension.
 Perhaps it'd be better to be explicit and specify {{{main-module-is:
 Foo.Bar}}}.

 Note that we do need both a file name and a module name because we have to
 pass that file to ghc since it's very common for people to use main
 modules that are not called {{{Main.hs}}}.
