This is not just about your code. If this supposed bikeshed reaches a

explaining why it is really safe (perhaps haskell_policy already does that,
not sure).

One possibility would be to use Neil Mitchell's safe package:

http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/safe/0.2/doc/html/Safe.html

In particular fromJustNote seems nice here.
