Hello, although I like overloaded string literals very much, I see one problem with the current implementation of them in GHC. It’s the class name “IsString”. No other Haskell class name I know starts with “Is”; we don’t have “IsNum”, “IsMonad”, etc. Would it be possible to change the class name “IsString” to something different? Would it be possible to remove the type alias “String” and let “String” be the class name? Can I add this remark somewhere on the wiki?
