Agreed, and I think Foldable and Traversable too.

Anything that's Foldable or Traversable is kind of inherently a collection, so I'd support putting them in the collections package. Or do you know of potential instances that aren't collections?

Also, Monad should one day be a subclass of Applicative, IMO: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/haskell-prime/ticket/113.

I agree, but not in this change. ;) -- Namasté, Jeffrey Yasskin
