Hi,

Just as there's a Foldable class, there should also be an Unfoldable class.
This package provides one:
class Unfoldable t where
unfold :: Unfolder f => f a -> f (t a)
Just to be sure: That's not a generalization of Data.List.unfoldr, or
is it somehow?
It seems to be -- see
https://github.com/sjoerdvisscher/unfoldable/blob/master/src/Data/Unfoldable.hs#L84
(although that is much more complicated than Data.List.unfoldr)
I must admit I'm a bit weirded out by the (Bounded a, Enum a)
restriction on the Either, tuple, and Constant instances. Why not just
use Unfoldable a, or have a class specifically devoted to unfolding * types?
