One of the nice things about Haskell is the ability to use infix notation.

```
1 : 2 : 3 : []    :: Num a => [a]
2 + 4 * 3 + 5     :: Num a => a

```

But this power is suddenly and sadly lost when the operator needs to be lifted.

```
liftM2 (*) (liftM2 (+) m2 m4) (liftM2 (+) m3 m5)
liftM2 (:) m1 (liftM2 (:) m2 (liftM2 (:) m3 mE))

```

It is possible to define similar operators in order to regain this power

```
(.*) = liftM2 (*)
(.+) = liftM2 (+)
(.:) = liftM2 (:)

m1, m2, m3, m4, m5 :: Monad m, Num a => m a
mE = return []     :: Monad m => m [a]
m1 .: m2 .: m3 .: mE    :: Monad m, Num a => m [a]
m2 .+ m4 .* m3 .+ m5    :: Monad m, Num a => m a

```

But it is tedious to need to rename every operator I want to use in a monadic context. Is there a better way? Template Haskell, perhaps?
