Oh, I see. Sorry. I totally misunderstood the proposal. I should have read
more carefully.
I think undefined and error are useful functions to have, so why adding
WARNING to them? For example, you can fold an infinite structure `xs` with
`foldr f undefined xs` (for some proper `f`) without needing to define or
look for an alternative to `Data.Foldable.foldr`.
