Chance, definitely. In the perfect world, HSE would support everything
that any Haskell compiler supports, so you might say I "plan" to
include every extension, it's just a question of time and priority.
And getting explicit requests for a particular feature certainly
increases the latter. (Oh how I wish it would increase the former
too...) :-)
