Indeed. The literature on generic programming sometimes uses the term 
"superkind" to refer to the sort of BOX; see, for example,

  Ralf Hinze and Johan Jeuring. Generic Haskell: Applications. In Roland Carl 
Backhouse and Jeremy Gibbons, editors, Generic Programming: Advanced Lectures, 
volume 2793 of Lecture Notes in Computer Science, pages 57–96. Springer-Verlag, 
2003.

Cheers,
