I'm definitely in favor of having the option to shut off the import of the Prelude without entangling the notion of overriding all of the desugarings.

I do, however, feel that removing the Prelude from base is a rather strong step, which hasn't seen much support.

Dear Haskellers,

I have made a wiki page describing a new proposal,
NoImplicitPreludeImport, which I intend to propose for Haskell 2014:
    http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/haskell-prime/wiki/NoImplicitPreludeImport

What do you think?


Thanks to the folks on #ghc who gave some comments on an earlier draft.


Thanks
Ian
