Well, so am I, but I'm not the crusading sort.  Unqualified import as
default is definitely the dominant style, to the point where language
extensions tend to assume it, e.g. record puns, or even the whole
shared record names debate.

Interestingly, python and java seem to lean the other way.  Not sure
about ocaml, but I remember qualified names from back in the day.  A
culture thing, I guess.  Infix operators and backticks are uniquely
haskelly things that probably contribute a little.
