Thanks Mortiz That wiki page is about extensible interface files in general. It says nothing about specifically putting Core terms into interface files.
For the Core part, since GHC already puts Core into unfoldings, the simple thing is just to expose all unfoldings, no?

Just to make sure we are aware of all the ongoing efforts. We've been working on ebedding Core into interface files as well.

As I recall this is precisely what you implemented in your "fat interface file" work. Do you recall what the state of this work was? Do you have a branch with last-known-good work? Do you recall any tricky questions that remained outstanding?
