2. Concern that Int-based indexing breaks the set abstraction by exposing a specific ordering (Trac comment by Malcolm Wallace). My assumption when I decided to submit this patch was that if it's OK for Data.Map to have these operations, then it should also be ok for Data.Set to have them.

I agree with Malcolm on this point. The int-indexed functions on Map shouldn't be there in the first place, so I'd be unhappy to have them spread. Those modules already have disagreeably bloated APIs.
