This only works with libraries that are lower-level, like binary,
which other libraries are likely to use. For libraries such as
HTML/XML parsing, its likely that the majority of users are
applications, which are under-represented on hackage. I don't know
what safecopy does, but I'm guessing its a wrapper around binary
providing some functionality, so it follows that more people probably
use the lower-level library than safecopy.

Thanks
