I agree with all that, and also share Johan's alarm at the sudden appearance of coerce in this class. On the substance, I don't think Functor is the right place for this, as it's about lifting isomorphisms rather than functions, and type constructors don't have to be functors to support that. _______________________________________________ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
