I agree with Marin's goal, but I am also unsure of the best way to achieve
them.

One specific issue, is that the working by extending tagged types naturally
leads to using child packages. Most will be generic if, like me, you prefer
Element_Type to be generic.
This leads to the nasty issues of nested instantations, which are quite hard
to hide from the programmer using the packages, unless I am missing
something.
