It's a shame such cool technology is being put to use for something as trivial as Facebook.

There's a lot of critique that could be leveraged against Facebook, but I don't understand how you could call it trivial.
Simon Marlow said on reddit this morning that some of the technology is getting merged upstream into GHC 7.8. So we'll all benefit from it.
Is there any reason it can't be used elsewhere? You could repurpose the solution into your own project and do something less trivial.
