The Yampa people and I (the Grapefruit maintainer) already agreed to introduce a top-level FRP namespace instead of putting FRP under Control or whatever. Graphics.UI is a bad choice in my opinion, since not all user interfaces are graphical (ncurses) and for those who are, it’s not so important anymore that they are (it was important in the 1980ies). So it might be good to change Graphics.UI to just UI. Then we might want to change Graphics.Rendering to just Graphics.
What do others think?
I prefer this too. UI and Graphics are different things: doing stuff with images is graphics but not UI, while ncurses or even a command-line is UI but not graphics. -- Ashley Yakeley
