Yes, it strikes me as perhaps the best option: add seqid and seqheader,
remove seqlabel from the class, but make it a separate alias with a
deprecation warning.
Anyone opposed?
Also, I think one should be able to work with sequences as far as
possible without resorting to Bytestring operations (exposing the
internals).
Is it okay to use Monoid for appending and (m)empty? And have separate
'slice' and 'copy' (or perhaps 'defragment')? Any implementor of the
classes would have to bear the burden of implementing this as well, of
course.
