Comment(by simonpj):

 Notes following a brief discussion with Simon M

  * It is probably a Good Plan to make the simplifier monad carry the
 global symbol table, just as the desugarer monad does, so that rules can
 readily grab these `Id`s.  That would be generally useful.

  * Maybe it's worth having `Integer/Int` versions of all the `Integer`
 operations.  Or not. It's a big surprise to me that the cost of unboxing
 that `S#` is 20% of execution time; and also allocation is higher and I
 don't understand why.
