I actually agree with you, since at some point I thought of adding this
kind of syntactic sugar for functors returning a signature.
But, seeing Dumitru's reasonning, this might well be confusing.
Anyway, I think that destructive substitution provides the same expressive
power in a more uniform way (using intra-signature dependencies).
