Re: [Haskell-cafe] Monoid wants a (++) equivalent

Isn't "++" itself the perfect Monoid operator? Lambdabot seems to think so. On Tue, Jun 30, 2009 at 13:04, Edward Kmett wrote:

I love the idea, but its tricky to come up with one that is good that won't break a lot of user code that imports Data.Monoid unqualified. -Edward Kmett

I've thought for a while that it would be very nice indeed if the Monoid class had a more concise operator for infix appending than "a `mappend` b". I wonder if other people are of a similar opinion, and if so, whether this is worth submitting a libraries@ proposal over.
