 Replying to [comment:3 nthiery]:
 > Just wondering: is that still the case for a complex reflection group W
 that, if you take a parabolic subgroup `W_I` and its coset representatives
 `W^I` the factorization of an element `w=w_I w^I` is reduced?

 Complex reflection groups behave *very differently* with respect to a
 simple system (which basically doesn't exist, at least not in a Coxeter
 combinatorial sense). I believe this does not work, but Jean can certainly
 say what is possible and what is not.
