Here's a concrete suggestion: have Data.Binary.Put export the existing function
tell :: Builder -> Put
and also
execPut :: PutM a -> Builder execPut = sndS . unPut
What's the use case?
Quoting a previous message:
I imagine one might want to make a Builder for a composite object, using the Binary instances of some types. And one might want to go the other way too, defining a Binary instance using an existing Builder.
Sounds good. Do you just want these exposed as is?
Yes, though Antoine's suggestion of exporting tell as putBuilder may be better.
