Many other programming languages have packaging strategies that sound very similar. Several of them have managed to have a negative impact on platforms that already have good packaging technologies (i.e. almost every platform apart from Windows ;-). I'd hate to see Haskell go in a direction where packaging for e.g. Debian is made more difficult than it is at the moment.
There's little danger of that, given the involvement of Duncan (a Gentoo developer) and Ian (a Debian developer).
