I hadn't realised that your suggestion was a propos of Standard Haskell. I'm pretty leery about trying to agree any new libraries at this stage, unless someone comes up with a worked-out, and implemented, specification pretty quickly. The name of the Std Haskell game is rapid closure. There are just tons of things that 'ought' to be in it that aren't going to be. Simon
