I wouldn't call it a "programming model" so much as a library. A "programming model" sounds to me like an idiom, whereas there's an actual typeclass in the standard library called Monad. Yes, there's special sugar built into GHC (and, likely, any haskell implementation) for it, but it really is at its heart just a typeclass.

do notation is in the Haskell 98 standard.
