Yes, but that leaves the an objection I have to this proposal requiring me
personally to write an extra 1691 import lines -- based on the contents of
my local development folder, to just get back up to par with the status quo.
As a flag I can turn on in a package to get finer grained control? I'm
totally for it!
As a source of *mandatory* boilerplate at the head of each module? It
doesn't strike me as a good trade-off.

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.
Just to clarify: This proposal is to stop importing the module implicitly, not to actually remove the module.
