preventDefault?

[teh]

Right now I'm stopping events from propagating like this:

onSubmit ev = do
  (unsafeCoerce ev).preventDefault
  ...    

Would you be opposed to me introducing this function (and others from https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/events.html)?

Agree. I have a similar function. :(

I do think preventDefault and friends are useful functions to have. Do you think there is any way to leverage preventDefault from purescript-dom?

However, since the react library defines its own Event type, perhaps defining preventDefault separately here does make more sense.
