A biggy that I had left out has just reoccurred to me. The very first reason 
for me to look at how unlitting and preprocessing is done in GHC was, because I 
was looking into what would be required for a refactoring engine (like haRe) to 
be based on the GHC API. Of course, at the moment, the API doesn't do anything 
with unlitting and preprocessing.
