So, I tried the easiest non-trivial example, namely that of Times:

We'd have

[x^\sigma] Z_{f*g} = \sum_{\tau <= \sigma} [x^\tau] Z_f [x^{\sigma-\tau}] Z_g

where

* \sigma is a cycle type

* x^\sigma = x1^{\sigma_1} x2^{\sigma_2} ...

* [x^\sigma] Z_f denotes the coefficient in Z_f

* \tau <= \sigma is to be understood componentwise.

I believe that this would imply a significant speedup in functorialCompose. 

Ralf, don't you do something like this internally anyway, in order to obtain
the product of cycle index series? (Well, it doesn't seem so. Maybe that's a
point for having multivariate series...) In this case, it would only be a
matter of refactoring code.
