If people want Haskell to be treated as a practical language, not just something for doing academic teaching and research with, it should be taught as a practical language - which means that things like IO and space/time usage come to the forefront.
So programming is only practical if it's deals with a lot of I/O? This is wrong, in my opinion. Take a compiler. The only I/O it does is some simple file I/O. The important part of the compiler doesn't deal with I/O at all. Best wishes, Wolfgang
