It may make it harder for people to grasp the difference between an IORef and a regular value though...
And this might be a big problem. It reminds me of languages which do a lot of automatic type conversion, including automatically converting strings to integers and the like. The intention might be to make the programmers life easier but I think in the long run it makes it harder. In my opinion, it's a good thing if a language forces the programmer to see different things as different things and not mix apples with pears.
