Indeed.

One could expand MonadTrans in

	instance (MonadTrans t, MonadCGI m, Monad (t m)) => MonadCGI (t m)

replacing it with

	instance (MonadCGI m) => MonadCGI (ListT m)
	instance (MonadCGI m) => MonadCGI (ContT m)
	instance (Error e, MonadCGI m) => MonadCGI (ErrorT e m)
	instance (MonadCGI m) => MonadCGI (ReaderT r m)
	instance (MonadCGI m) => MonadCGI (StateT s m)
	instance (Monoid w, MonadCGI m) => MonadCGI (StateT w m)
	instance (Monoid w, MonadCGI m) => MonadCGI (RWST r w s m)
