The Haskell' process expects proposals to have already been implemented, so I'll propose it there after acceptance by GHC. If the patches are accepted for HEAD, this may be adequate for proposing towards the next Haskell report, so GHC and the report will only be out of sync for a minimal time.
Someone in the previous discussion (might have been me...) suggested that the Haskell Prime committee might want a different criteria for library changes than the one it has language extensions. A change like this one would be particularly disruptive outside a language revision, but a lot more tolerable as part of one.
