I think there are 4 things it has been suiggested that we might do:
* Generalise Prelude.mapM etc
* Remove Prelude.mapM etc
* Add more monomorphic variants to Prelude (e.g. whenJust)
* Nothing

If we're going to have a poll, then I think it should allow people to
rank all the options. +1/-1 ona single option would only give a sense of
whether an option is prefered to doing nothing, not whether it is the
best option.


Thanks
