With my wl-pprint-text package, Jason Dagit suggested to me on #haskell that it would make sense to make such a pretty-printer be class-based so that the same API could be used for String, ByteString, Text, etc.
I don't think that's actually a good idea. The internals of your package will be a soggy mess, and the public APIs will be hard to follow. I'm also unclear on why you'd want to use something like wl-pprint for bytestrings at all.
