Comment:
I really dislike the idea of adding a new function for each functionality
of this kind. This makes it very hard for users to figure out the function
name they need for a specific task.
We should be able to provide an interface to all these "rewriting" tasks
through a few conceptually defined methods like rewrite(), expand() and
combine()( or contract()?).
Francois Maltey had a proposal for a possible interface to all this. Maybe
he can comment here, or we can discuss his proposal on sage-devel.
