expose :: a -> b -> b expose = seq
This class serves as a vehicle for performing certain black magic rituals which (usually) help SpecConstr destroy evil artifacts introduced by stream fusion. In particular, expose is *not* seq; it is essentially deepSeq.
Mysteriously it seems there is also no deepseq package on Hackage ... only a DeepSeq module as part of HXT.
Ok, there is Control.Parallel.Strategies.rnf, but I do not see, why deep strictness should be bound to the parallelism package (that is probably not as portable as a deep strictness package).

I mentioned the idea of splitting out the strictness bits from parallel into a separate package a while ago and noone objected, but it needs someone to write the patch checking for hidden gotchas and make a formal proposal.
