I suspect that for large-scale adoption the best route would not be
one gigantic one (even if split to several packages), but smaller
ones, with sensible delineation. Not one project, but many.
Here's a concrete suggestion or three:
* Macrology: with-unique-names, once-only, format-symbol, destructuring-lambda,
etc.
* Funutils: compose, curry, etc.
* Conses: mappend, remove-properties, etc.
(I would have said anaphora too, but that exits already, and does
enerything one should want to ask from an anaphoric package.)
