I've written some classes for this type of functionality as well. I think what I've written can be generalized, so I'd like to participate if folks decide to pursue this.

Is here the right place to request a list class? eg class List l e where (:) :: e -> l e -> l e head :: ..
This might be used in Data.Set, Data.Map
class StorableAsList l e t where fromList :: l e -> t toList :: t -> l e
I'd like to help implementing/ writing it.
Do you consider this beeing a useful enhancement?
I was looking for such a class just yesterday. I wanted a difference list over LazyByteString, and it seemed wrong just to rewrite Don Stewart's DList for byte strings without first having a list class.
I would also like to help implement it.
