Wasn't the original notion to leave monads-fd as is and have mtl-2 re-export monads-fd?
It was, but installing two packages providing modules with the same name makes problems for people using ghci or ghc --make, and the suggestion of hiding mtl was criticized as too disruptive. Hence the revised plan.
Isn't this still a problem for the things in transformers?
Since transformers-0.2.0.0 there have been no module name clashes with mtl.
