I'm very suspicious about the power/weight ratio of this change. Normally, for simple value-level stuff like this, provide both options:
mapM / forM. =<< >>=
So how about, rather than break things, just provide an alternative to ($).
Alright, I'm not sure what the proper channel for doing this is, but I reckon here is as good as anywhere. I would like to propose that the Haskell' Prelude includes the function f $$ x = f x with the same fixity level as $ (presumably 0) but being left associative instead. And that $ is left as is.
