Proposal: flipped fmap in base (again)

[Bas van Dijk]

I'm still in favour of this so a +1 from me.

For completeness, your proposal should also specify from which module this
will be exported and what the fixity and precedence will be.

This was proposed about 7 years ago, and rejected at the time:
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3962

 Is it okay if I revive this argument now?

I think it would be useful to have the lens operator <&> in base, which is
defined as:

(<&>) :: Functor f => f a -> (a -> b) -> f b
as <&> f = f <$> as

This is analogous to a lifted version of (&) that already present in
Data.Function


Cheers,
Sid
