What should %e^(y=x) mean?

 I wouldn't want desolve(a=b,x) to simplify to
desolve(a,x)=desolve(b,x)! I think every example of a simplification of
this type is a special case and should be considered on its merits. If
enough people would find it useful for %e^(y=x) to simplify to
%e^y=%e^x, then it might be worth adding. Personally I can live with it
either way.
