After all I think that current exception handling in Control.Exception is only a temporary solution until we have a stable system with explicit exception lists encoded in types. Thus removing one broken temporary solution (Prelude.catch) in order to force people to use the other broken temporary solution (Control.Exception.catch) sounds not good for me.
I think that while this proposal does not make things perfect, it does make them better, and that perfection is some way off. If anyone agrees with Henning that the change should not be made for this reason, please speak up. Thanks Ian
