So, if this proposal is accepted, then we would have:

- transformers on HP.
- mtl on HP (depending on transformers).
- monads-tf on Hackage (depending on transformers).

Wouldn't it be better to obsolete mtl and have:

- transformers on HP.
- monads-fd on HP (depending on transformers).
- monads-tf on Hackage (depending on transformers).

The naming would be more consistent.

Thanks for biting the bullet!
