Note, that this library does not encourage sloppy software design by re-introducing all bad effects of global variables.
But isn't this kind of solution for the "configuration problem" an example for sloppy software design? If a global configuration would be passed around, then you could easily use the program functions with different configurations simultaneously. In contrast to that, with the global IORef this is not possible.
