Yes, that's exactly what I want, although a third module name is needed.
How do you set up the cabal file for such a package?
The license entry could simply mention the possible readline dependency.

(Maybe that's useful for other packages, too, that can be realized via
readline or editline, or even for the common bits of the readline and
editline packages, since it's not the module
System.Console.Editline.Readline ifself)
