I think it is about time to finally fix this. I am probably the least knowledgeable about Monad mashing, but seems like a good time to learn!

give this a shot if I saw some code. I think one possibility would be
to wrap everything in a liftIO, but then you won't have access to the
Handler monad features. This would prevent you from doing things like
setting messages and sending redirects from the database access
itself, but should otherwise be fine.
