I don't feel strongly either way. A lot of the small things in Yi
probably don't warrant extra packages, but doing it at least for GUIs
could make sense.

Previous work includes yesod and friends (the Yesod category on
Hackage has 24 packages, albeit not all yesod-*) and xmonad-contrib,
which puts everything in one package.

That's fair. Can you verify that the few quickcheck tests (e.g. those
in Yi.Syntax.Tree) only run when --self-check is passed; I'm not
familiar with the testing framework.
