Comment (by simonpj):
We changed it because a lot of the time it's very convenenient to see the
result of an action. But you have a good point.
(As an unsatisfactory workaround, you could wrap x an un-Showable
constructor, or in a function; but that changes its type.)
What do others think? Return to old behaviour? Have another settable
option? Or what?
