I'm excited to see another option appear in text editing, and excited that it's written in Haskell, one of my favorite languages. But, why would I choose it over another text editor? The ability to customize it is neat, but editors like emacs can be customized to one's heart's content, and indeed can suffer from this (why did my editor suddenly become slow? why is my syntax highlighting or indentation not working correctly? who knows, it's the interaction of one of the 50 packages I have installed...).

Of course, you as the author are under no obligation save to write whatever you want, but speaking personally, I would love to see some sort of demonstration of how the editor works, and/or the case made selling me on why I should choose it over other options.
