I would like to put two rather prosaic things into Haskell 1.3. They almost
fall into the "syntactic sugar" class, but they would make my life easier.
The first is that I would like to see arrays be a class instead of whatever
they are. I wanted to construct a subclass of arrays that were cons
Following recent discussions about strictness annotations, and the
reservations people had about introducing them into standard Haskell, I
thought I would mention that there is another way of thinking about them that
might be helpful.
You can think of a type !t as meaning `t without _|_' (a subt

A couple of miniscule suggestions for Haskell 1.3:
How about removing the `where' from `module...where' and `interface...where'
so that these become ordinary topdecls like the rest. This would mean that
the convention about topdecls not having to be indented would no longer be an
ugly exception
