How about "separate"?  ("split" or "splitBy" is better but it is used
all over the place in many libs)

And for strings I definitely would use split :: [a] -> [a] -> [[a]]  a
lot, just like Python's split function. And "words" works great for
breaking on multiple spaces, so I would avoid trying to fill that
need...
