Can the Haddock library expose more (then just reading interface files)?

I don't see any problems with exposing createInterface and Interface
other than it would bring in a lot of additional data types. I'll see
if I can expose createInterface in the next major release. I'll
probably also rename the current API from Distribution.Haddock to
Documentation.Haddock. Don't expect the API to be very stable,
however, since it will directly expose internal data structures and
functions.
