Dave,
I agree on the head/tail things, that is reasonable.
I think perhaps we can change the current find to first, but i think
perhaps we should then add a proper find that will collect the output,
but then again we have grep for that so meh.
I do however agree that following List::Util/List::Moreutils is not a
bad idea as they are pretty well used modules.

I'd like to propose some changes in Array before we release.
Specifically, I'd like to make our names match names in List::

So with that in mind, I'd like to rename:
first => head
The term "head" is pretty darn common for "first element in the
list". And this leaves us free to rename:
find => first
That's what List::MoreUtils calls it.
We could also add a tail method to go along with head, just for
compsci completeness.
