Hacking up your own custom split (or a tokens/splitOnGlue) must be one
of the most common questions from beginners on the irc channel.
Even fps has a split/splitBy:

Anyone rememeber what the result of the "let's get split into the base
library" movement's work was?
ISTR there wasn't a concensus, so nothing happened. Which is silly, really - I
agree we should definitely have a Data.List.split.
