One additional issue:
Data.List is in the base package. Data.Set is in containers.
Data.Set also imports Data.List, so using sets in the latter creates a
circular dependency.
The latter isn't as big a deal, but circular package dependences sounds like a
problem to me (as I imagine containers depends on base).
Something else to discuss. :)

P.S.: On point 4, I'd probably lean away from StopList as well. Requiring
fundeps seems undesirable for a rather core, H98-esque module.
