Personally, I'm still in favour of inverting this. We are not in court here, so every foreign function is guilty until proven innocent. Every foreign function might be "longrunning" unless the programmer happens to know otherwise. So maybe... "returnsquickly"?
Hear, hear:
fast - takes very little time to execute
pure - side-effect free
nocallback - does not call back into Haskell
