Hi all, Strangely enough, ST has a Functor and a Monad instance, but no Applicative instance (I guess it was pre-Applicative). I propose to add one. It doesn't seem very controversial, but I guess a normal discussion period for these proposals is two weeks?

Daniel, I believe you can move your ticket to the patch state since no objections we're raised for adding an Applicative instance for ST: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4455 Regards, Bas
