Yes, this is the best idea.

If you notice that for certain files
(particular files) you always do this, you can
use this

    (setq magic-mode-alist '(("/\\* cpp \\*/" . c++-mode)))

for those files, only adapted to Haskell, not
C++.

To test it, put

/* cpp */

as the first line in a file called cpp.txt -
now, the ".txt" extention should put the file
in text mode. But eval the above form, close
the file, and open it again - now it should be
in C++.

Magic :)
