And a related question is: Which packages are searchable by Hoogle?
The best answer to that is "some". I intentionally excluded OpenGL and other graphics ones because they have a large interface and yet are not used by most people using Haskell.
I'm not sure I agree that is a good reason. If there is a specificity problem with Hoogle, that should be adressed in the interface e.g. by providing more information about the search results, or letting the user restrict his search (filtering out parts of the hierarchy from the result list, for instance). -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
