Comment (by ncohen):

 Yoooooooooooo !

 > this is too ugly, uglier than using a class, or whatever. Actually, I
 think it is simply wrong to let groups act on some totally unstructured
 arbitrary sh*t, and this is exactly what happens right now with allowing
 arbitrary domain elements, for which any relation to the original domain
 is lost.

 Ahahaha. Deal. Do I remove all support for labels on edges and vertices
 from graphs ? I am sooooooooooo eager to `:-P`

 > Say, if the domain of a group is {1,2,3,4,{1,2},{2,3}}, the very notion
 of the orbit of {1,2}  is becoming ambiguous, as in a sane world {1,2} is
 a subset of {1,2,3,4}, and not a random label.

 Well, in Sage however it is not ambiguous :
 {{{
 g.orbit(Set([1,2]),action="OnPoints")
 g.orbit(Set([1,2]),action="OnSets")
 }}}
