Yes, it would be great. It will make packaging the HP harder, obviously. And will be somewhat controversial. But we may be getting closer to, in particular, gtk being easy enough to build to be included.
Software frequently requires a graphical user interface. Haskell has 2 major GUI packages (gtk and wx), but both are difficult to install, at least on Windows.
Including a GUI library with HP, or even as a separate download, would make Haskell GUI programming much more accessible.
