I'm convinced about what you say and perhaps I answered the way I did
just because I'm convinced that, for a newbie, knowing about the
existence of unsafePerformIO can't cause any harm.

I was a bit surprised by the strong reaction about my citation of
unsafePerformIO. Maybe it'd useful, for the future, to write a
document explaining how to help newbies properly, maybe putting it in
the mailing list charter.
