It would be nice for there to be a new standard so that many features in GHC -- such as overloaded strings, rank n types, MPTCs, &c. -- were enabled by default without any pragmas.
I think this is one of these nice gains for day-to-day Haskell programming. Less typing and fewer things to explain to beginners ("You see, this might seem like an experimental feature I'm asking you to use, but it really isn't.") -- Johan
