That is an excellent point, and one that I hadn't really considered - on
profiling, the cases that /I/ care about spend the vast majority of
their time actually evaluating thunks rather than in gmapQr, but I don't
pretend that I'm a universal case and I'm sympathetic to those with
stronger performance needs.
