Our idlists module was written by Francisco Bueno, including useful predicates which were not in our original lists module (years before I started working in the CLIP Lab so probably Manuel knows better). I had a look it we would have no problem with merging idlists into lists (those predicates seem standard in other Prologs nowadays).
As SWI mentions in their documentation: "Virtually every Prolog system has library(lists), but the set of provided predicates is diverse. There is a fair agreement on the semantics of most of these predicates, although error handling may vary."

For reference:
Some of systems above include meta predicates like
maplist/N
in thelists.pl
module. Ciao avoids doing it.Originally posted by @jfmc in https://github.com/ciao-lang/ciao/issues/60#issuecomment-1214334034
