A billion little unmemorable functions with symbolic names
Pretty much. If you though Common Lisp was bad, this is much worse. And that makes for a major (re-)learning curve every time you stop programming in Haskell for a couple of months.
I actually like the symbolic function names. They're a pattern and method to them that once you learn it, it's super convenient. Perhaps it just needs more obvious documentation.

It'd be nice to be able to search by type declaration
Hoogle lets you do exactly that, with fuzzy matching:

It's as useful as you might hope!
I am not a Haskeller, but you can use "!h searchterm" on Duck Duck Go.
OMG thank you, this was the thing that got me to finally permanently set my toolbar search in FF to Duck Duck Go...
That's why I like Scheme.
