An alternative (and I think this has also been proposed before) is to simply drop the Graphics.UI header from the module hierarchy. The main con here is that there's an increased risk of module name-clashes, but GHC already solves this with the PackageImports extension.
I think several of the issues might be resolved by just using the package name as the first module name.
Such a policy violates the separation of provenance from function principle, which I think is a good one. That is, I ought to be able to swap in a different implementation of a map for the standard one in the containers package without having to touch my code (especially if the exported API's happen to match). -- Mathieu Boespflug Founder at http://tweag.io.
