While we're on the topic of prelude.ml, I wonder how many folks would  
find it very nice to just open Prelude and have all these nice  
functions readily available.  I know that the lack of it makes  
references such as List.map ubiquitous, and many argue it's a good  
thing.  However, it feels refreshing to use short names in an orderly  
way.  Since there's also the Batteries, perhaps a consensus can be  
worked out on what should be in a such an extension to Pervasives?

Cheers,
Alexy
