[isabelle-dev] Multiset insert

[Tobias Nipkow]

Currently the setup in Multiset is geared towards having the 3 basic (non-free) constructors: empty, singleton and union. Although induction already has only two cases (empty and union with singleton), it would be nicer to have only two constructors, like for finite sets: empty and insert. In particular, this often avoids the use of ac_simps for union because representations are more canonical. The singleton constructor would be retained as an abbreviation for "insert_mset _ {#}" but "M + {#x#}" would be simplified to "insert_mset x M", like for sets.

Any views?
