24,Conversion between different types of vectors,Khudyakov,,"Problems which require conversion between different types of vectors arise from time to time and they are not described in documentation.

I think most important is conversion between unboxed and storable vectors. Unboxed vectors are more convenient to work with (Tuples!) and with storables one could hook into FFI. Conversion between these types should be covered in documentation. In this case O(1) conversion is of course preferable.

Currently there are two method for vector conversion.
{{{
convert1 = fromList . toList 

convert2 v = generate (length v) (v !) 
}}}

So please provide either function for conversion between vectors or describe this in documentation.
