The plan is to split Control.Monad.Identity, Control.Monad.Trans and Control.Monad.Trans.* off into a separate (portable) package.
Isn't Control.Monad.Identity very simple, very short and totally Haskell 98? Why can't it go in the standard MTL?
The point was to make all the above modules pure Haskell 98, leaving a non-portable (but mostly backward-compatible) mtl package as a thin wrapper.
