I am slightly freaked out by the `Lens`es provided by `Pipes.Parse` being 
'improper'.  Could they not be `Getter`s instead?

    type Splitter a m = forall x. Getter (Producer a m x) (Producer a m 
(Producer a m x))
    -- Should have   " join . view sp == id "     for any sp :: Splitter a 
m  and  p :: Producer a m r

    span :: Monad m => (a -> Bool) -> Splitter a m
    splitAt :: Monad m => Int -> Splitter a m
    groupBy :: Monad m => (a -> a -> Bool) -> Splitter a m
    group :: (Monad m, Eq a) => Splitter a m

    -- would replace `zoom`
    split :: Splitter a m -> Parser a m r -> Parser a m r
    split sp st = StateT $ \p -> fmap (fmap join) (runStateT st (p^.sp))

This means that users would sometimes have to use `zoom` and sometimes have 
to use `split`, which might be annoying.  But it feels better than having 
fake `Lens`es somehow.
