Historically this idea has met with some resistance. However this seems to have cleared up a bit, so perhaps it is politically possible now. The various debugging dump files aren't the most useful -- sometimes they omit info, I think we don't try to keep the output formats stable, etc. I think it would be more advisable to design something with AST database generation as an explicit goal.
