Gotta say, I'm Team Qualified Import. Use it all the time in my Clojure code. I want to know where things come from.

On Haskell you don't even get much choice. The community is so biased towards qualified importing that most modules clash, and you'd need some incredible stretching to use them unqualified.

As most things in Haskell, it tends to work greatly. The usual problems go away due to some combination of Haskell's features and the main problems are things you wouldn't think about.

Totally reasonable, but most people would use BS instead of ByteString as the qualified name.
