Re: [Haskell-cafe] libmpd-haskell RFC

A comment on documentation.  I find it very frustrating when libraries are
described as an interface to X, where X is often an acronym that has
multiple definitions on the web.  Lots of clicking got me to 'Music Player
Demon', but no further description or links.  Just a little more
information, say in a top-level README and/or the Haddock docs would be
greatly appreciated.

It doesn't really matter -- I hardly imagine amarok user who would agree
to fetch&build libmpd-haskell in order to use some other network-related
extension.

We could have multiple extension packages (i.e. xmonadcontrib-network)
for things that touch the network.

I'd like to use it in xmonad extension to control MPD, but since all
extensions live in one package (XMonadContrib), adding new dependencies
is discouraged, so I chose ad-hoc solution using netcat.
