This isn't aimed at you specifically, but I suggest that if someone objects to a proposal on the grounds that an alternative route is better, they should actually propose that so that we can have a proper debate between the alternatives.
I agree. Patch attached. Side note: there are tons of long lines and lines with dangling whitespace in these files. It could use a cleanup. I also fixed the docstrings for Data.Map.foldlWithKey and Data.Map.foldrWithKey.
Removing foldWithKey from IntMap would (arguably) require foldrWithKey and foldlWithKey to be exposed instead. It seems Milan raised this in http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/libraries/2010-September/014410.html and there was no objection, but nothing further was done.
So symmetry (assuming one agrees it's so important to have it in the
first place) is still broken anyways if we roll back the "foldWithKey"
deprecation?
