A modest proposal

Hello Happy Haskellers,

I would like to humbly suggest that we replace all Int
functions in the prelude with the corresponding generic
ones.  These are: drop, take, length, splitAt, replicate and
(!!).

If at all possible it would be grand if we replaced the ones
in Data.List (such as elemIndex) and other modules too!

Irradicate Irritating Ints!  There I said it!

Hoan
