Domain:Domain introduces an inconsistency at its Curry-Howard logic
level, so I'm nervous about that.  A solution, adopted by Coq, is that
even though the interface would display Type:Type, what it really does
it that it has an infinite hierarchy of universes Type(k), where 
Type(i) : Type(j), for i < j, starting from 0.
