Most of `using ...' parts can be omitted here, and emacs can show
the place in the corresponding module for each item clicked at in the
current source.
But I import items explicitly, because this makes a program more clear.
For example, `setoid' and _+_ occur in many diferent library modules,
and have many different meanings.

Yes. After 17 months with Agda, I still ask sometimes
"has Standard library such and such thing?".
1) I thank Agda people for answering to such.
2) For a beginner, it has sense to inspect (after, say, 2 months
experience) _all_ the Agda code of Standard library, paying attention
to signatures and skipping (for the first studying) most of
implementation.
3) A regular documentation on the library is desirable, of a similar
kind as on the language
(a messy and boring work -- I agree).
For example, look at the on-line doc on the Haskall-2010 Standard
library.
