[Haskell-cafe] Template Haskell sugar / spliceing in automatically ?

[Marc Weber]

Hi, I've been thinking about template haskell sugar lately.

Some cool libraries are there such as metaHDBC or the template haskell
printf library.

However they all have one thing in common:

$(printf "...") a b c

$(runStmt "INSERT INTO ( ) VALUES ( ?, ?, ? )" ) 2 3 4


Would it make sense to automatically splice those functions?

{-# auto-splice: runStmt, printf #-}

So that you can just use
        printf "..." a b c
and
        runStmt "INSERT INTO ( ) VALUES ( ?, ?, ? )" 2 3 4
without $() ?

Would this be convinient?
