Shouldn't be there some kind of way to run IO code once at the beginning of template processing? Something like a pair of templateInit :: IO a and templateData :: a where the a of both functions is the same and the latter is automagically generated by TH. Right now, I have to either use unsafePerformIO or runIO and IORef's to load a file only once. Both solutions aren't necessarily pretty. -- (c) this sig last receiving data processing entity.
