Hello.
Here is one ghci feature that I find mildly annoying:
If ghci (re-)reads a module that contains some error,
then it considers the module loading as a complete failure,
and at the prompt I get the Prelude environment.
I'd like to have at least the import statements executed,
and possibly t

Sure.
Syntax errors are usually easy to spot and fix
(for the programmer who uses some reasonable code layout);
the motivation for my proposal was type errors.
I think it would be perfectly acceptable
if ghci rejects modules with parse errors (as it does now)
but handles modules with type errors
