Comment:
Dear porges
Sorry that we've been playing dead on this.
We don't have an opinion either way, but it's not entirely clear to us
that everyone would welcome such a change; eg they might want to use em-
dash in an operator.
Could you initiate a thread on glasgow-haskell-users to see if other
Unicode-aware folk actively want the change? If so, we'll apply it. A
final patch would be useful; and it should include documentation in 7.3.1
of the user manual.
Thanks
Simon
