Given the amount of material posted at haskell.org and elsewhere explaining IO, monads and functors, has anyone considered publishing a comprehensive book explaining those subjects?

Well, how much in depth are you interested in getting? I started reading Categories for the Working Mathematician a couple of months ago, and while it sometimes takes a bit of work it's a very good introduction. The only caution I have is that if you don't have that strong of a math background, or hadn't done it in a few years (like myself), you may have to lookup a lot of definitions in order to understand his examples. Wikipedia usually provides enough of a detailed description that you can get the point.
