Well, this a bold assumption IMHO, and I'm not particularly happy with that, as you can probably imagine.
I would also imagine that Joe Programmer is more likely to use wxHaskell or Gtk2Hs than those - however because those are outside the standard tree they don't make it in. I don't think much of TH made it in either (not becuase of deliberate exclusions, but because of technical limitations in the tool). Don't consider these choices to be a recommendation of one package over another - or a permanent decision. I hope to make all libraries available at some point.
Integrating with Haddock makes much sense, and perhaps we can bundle Hoogle somehow with Haddock, The data generation is now bundled with Haddock, and as far as I know, will be in the next release.
Hoogle is both a website, and a command line program, so this is already partially true that the website is just another instance. Just to make sure everyone is clear, the near term plans for Hoogle are: * Fix bugs (esp those relating to Monad and higher kinds) * Add a user interface to the website to select packages * Upload lots of packages * Possibly performance improvements Unfortunately I'm very busy right now, but give it a month or so and I'll be able to devote some time to this.
