How about I just write a blog post teaching people how to use `for_` (and more generally, how to use `Maybe`'s `Foldable` instance)? I know Oliver Charles wrote a similar post in his 24 days of Hackage, and maybe I could build on that a bit more and perhaps make it as Google-able as possible so it comes up as the top result when people search for keywords like `whenJust` and other `Maybe` idioms.
Sounds like a good post -- but, only if people can find it at the right time. Is there some way we can add something to the haddock/hoogle docs so that people looking for `whenJust` can be told that they are looking for `for_`? I just wrote `whenJust` myself a few days ago -- not realizing that for_ is what I wanted. I don't really need a whole tutorial for that -- just a 'you mean for_' would be enough. But.. it would need to be in the Control.Monad and/or Data.Maybe haddocks for me to have seen it.. - jeremy
