It does not have to be ugly. Just write
        (!!) = unsafeAt
in some common module of yours, and you have a nice fast array access.

I don’t think a flag would be very helpful, because you might have some
places where you want the safe access, and others where you know that it
is safe to skip the check.

Greetings,
Joachim
