Does native mean "Haskell only" - without FFI?
Native means the implementation is in haskell, and the library is not using another implementation (in another language) to do the work: either through FFI as a binding, or as a wrapper to an external program.
What's the motivation for this?
One thing I can see is that it would make things easier to install on Windows.
Indeed. Easier to install, easier to hack on (for Haskellers). Haskell program coverage, debugging, extending your quickcheck tests, etc.
