 between an element (a,b,c) and the list of elements (a,b,c) it will return
 the ELEMENT (a,b,c), but it it computes the orbit of a which happens to be
 (a,b,c) then returning an ELEMENT (a,b,c) instead of the list (a,b,c) is a
 mistake too `:-/`

 This does not seem to present a problem, as the action of the group is the
 same (trivial).

 But the real problem is with tuples vs sets. E.g. if your domain has
 tuples, it will not be possible to compute the action on subsets.

 Can't you typify the domain elements somehow, so that they are recognised
 as atoms without this kind of problem? (Or mangle them by some other
 means...)
