 The algorithm in chevie is very different from the algorithm we currently
 have:
 {{{
 ForEachElement:=function(W,f)local l,g;
   if not IsFinite(W) then Error("only for finite Coxeter groups");
   elif W.nbGeneratingReflections=0 then f(W.identity);return;
   fi;
   l:=List([0..W.nbGeneratingReflections],i->
         ReflectionSubgroup(W,W.reflectionsLabels{[1..i]}));
 l:=List([1..Length(l)-1],i->ReducedRightCosetRepresentatives(l[i+1],l[i]));
   g:=function(x,v)local y;
     if Length(v)=0 then f(x);
     else for y in v[1] do g(x*y,v{[2..Length(v)]});od;
     fi;
   end;
   g(W.identity,l);
 end;
 }}}

 We should also implement that algorithm (maybe even with hard-coded coset
 representatives in the finite case) so that we can see if this is indeed
 faster.
