Basically, you - and others, - propose to add another class isomorphic to already present lists. I think, most benefits of that class can be achieved by using list conversion and RULE pragma. what i propose should allow to convert algorithm dealing with strings into algorithm dealing with ByteStrings, simply by changing import statement
View patterns?.. Also, I think that some general optimization that can fold computations together (like supercompilation) will certainly help here.
it's a cute goal - keep Haskell strings easy of use but add ByteString performance
Completely agree, this is a noble goal. But ByteStrings aren't polymorphic. So they cannot satisfy your class.
