That I like. Systematic, comprehensive, and clean. Brilliant. It
will also let us clearly define the limits of our integration
algorithms for lots of specific cases, and we can look at whether or
not we should reasonably expect our system to calculate them.
My vote goes for implimenting that system. Perhaps it is also
applicable to other types of problems as well, although integration is
probably the most interesting and useful case.
