Hmm... Monads have been mentioned several times now. I need to go back and
refresh my understanding of these. I seem to recall that Marcus Motl did
something in OCaml related to monadic programming idioms. I am aware, now
that you mention it, that Haskell does have these temporal ordering
constraints available. It would be very nice to have these in a language
like OCaml with its easy integration of foreign functions.
