I did try to do this in my (rejected) paper "A monadic
interpretation of tactics" with Andrew Martin:

  http://web.comlab.ox.ac.uk/oucl/work/jeremy.gibbons/
    publications/index.html#tactics

[That should be all on one line, but my newsreader won't let me
exceed 80 chars. :-( ]

If you ignore the stuff on tactics, you could view it as yet
another general introduction to monads.
