The consensus on debian-devel is that at this time cdbs is the best
choice for haskell.
I personally think that whitelisting the haskell packages would be best
right now, and hope that will change in the future.

The DPL has no special powers here.
I personally don't think this makes a lot of sense as an i: tag, but
that's not my call to make.
