Re the Control namespace, these matchers aren't exclusively a testing tool. I've been using the core api for other purposes as well (primarily for validating forms in user interfaces in conjunction with digestive-functors). I couldn't figure anything better to put it in apart from Control (I definitely don't want it in Test, even though that's going to be what most people use it for). I guess it could be in `Data`, but that doesn't sound much better to me.
Yeah, the distinction between Control and Data is often borderline. Also, I've just recalled that Control.Unification also uses the Control namespace, although I don't see any rationale behind that. It's not that important anyway.
I'm not amazingly strong at building more principled interfaces right now, so I guess that's something I'll improve on. Are there any concrete suggestions you have there? I'd *like* these to have an `Alternative` instance, but making `Applicative`/`Functor` instances is beyond me right now (I guess I'd have to change the core API for that to work out).
I'll see if I can sketch something in the next couple of days. Roman
