Hi Roberto,
here's an alternative to your solution. It's a bit
shorter, and I find it easier to understand ;-)
It's untested, but you get the idea.

Seems good. I wiil test it and maybe compare performance.
The constranit api isn't very friendly, but it seems very powerful. I
began with simple constraints, this my first time with something more
complex.

Yes, the constraint API is awkward to use. It was really only
supposed to be the back-end for a string based interface, i.e.,
constraints you would just write like this:
(x.begin <= y.begin) & (x.end >= y.end)
I had implemented this at some time, but I'd used some compiler
library with the wrong kind of license, so we had to remove it.
I forget the details...
I'm currently toying with the idea of doing something like this
in Groovy, shouldn't be too hard. I just have to find the time ;-)
