-- | The ability to run any monadic action @m a@ as @IO a@.
--
-- This is more precisely a natural transformation. We need to new
-- datatype (instead of simply using a @forall@) due to lack of
-- support in GHC for impredicative types.

-- | Monads which allow their actions to be run in 'IO'.
--
-- While 'MonadIO' allows an 'IO' action to be lifted into another
-- monad, this class captures the opposite concept: allowing you to
-- capture the monadic context. Note that, in order to meet the laws
-- given below, the intuition is that a monad must have no monadic
-- state, but may have monadic context. This essentially limits
-- 'MonadUnliftIO' to 'ReaderT' and 'IdentityT' transformers on top of
-- 'IO'.
--
-- Laws. For any value @u@ returned by 'askUnliftIO', it must meet the
-- monad transformer laws as reformulated for @MonadUnliftIO@:
--
-- * @unliftIO u . return = return@
--
-- * @unliftIO u (m >>= f) = unliftIO u m >>= unliftIO u . f@
--
-- The third is a currently nameless law which ensures that the
-- current context is preserved.
--
-- * @askUnliftIO >>= (\u -> liftIO (unliftIO u m)) = m@
--
-- If you have a name for this, please submit it in a pull request for
-- great glory.
