I know that it's a research language, but for example it would be nice
to be able to experiment with gtk2 and chameleon. 

Functional programming, and advanced type systems, stand in front of
C/C++ hell like a (well designed) GUI stands in front of the command
line: maybe you have less control, but you do things quick and
correctly, so I think it's interesting to try to apply new ideas to
small "real world" examples. And to do this you need the FFI or a rich
standard library (GHC provides both :)).
