I do something similar now (use a monospace font):

	class Monad m =>
	      MonadPlus m where
	          [...]

Using a line break has also the advantage that changes before the => cannot 
introduce the necessity for a linebreak in the part after the =>.  So the 
formatting of the part after the => is not affected.  This is especially 
useful if you want to use darcs replace.

Best wishes,
