Alternately we could lift MonadIO into base.
This could be used eventually to lift more computations into MonadIO. Then
nobody incurs an extra dependency and we have a first step towards more
generic IO operations.

I'd also like to mention that there's a camp of people who'd like to have a safe/pure version of TH that cannot do any IO - for changes like the proposed one we should check whether they'd make that more difficult.

I'm very much in the "Damn the torpedoes; full speed ahead" camp most of the time, but not here. Transformers is a tiny step up from base. Why would you make it depend on template haskell rather than the other way around?
