Comment:
I can see arguments both ways. `ExitSuccess` is an exception like any
other, and GHCi reports all exceptions - this might be helpful for the
user if they weren't aware that `exitWith` raised an exception. On the
other hand, `ExitSuccess` doesn't cause any output in a standalone
program.
Anyone else have any thoughts?
