> be in complete charge of what is displayed, instead of being necessarily

> `:threads` (or `:set threads`, `:show threads` ?) command. Those could be
> user-defined, or provided by GHCi.

> - Have GHCi watch files for changes (or be easily notified of changes) so
> it reloads them automatically (à la ghcid). I guess the main difference
> with ghcid is that after reloading the files, there is still an interactive
> prompt available (and running threads should be restarted (when using
> `:reload` too)).

> regular interactive prompt.
>
> - Have GHCi be running as a background daemon, with no text interface
> beside a listening thread (or more than one). (This is related to
> https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/15461.)
