This is to advertise the proposal
(https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/19922) to add a
superclass to the MonadTrans type class in Control.Monad.Trans.

A Monad transformer 'trans' lifts a 'Monad m' to a 'Monad (trans m)'.

This proposal code-ifies that with a superclass constraint:

    class (forall m. Monad m => Monad (trans m)) => MonadTrans trans where
      ..

This is the main motiviating example of the Quantified Class
