Gerard,

I have no great love for substitution groups myself; anyone who has
implemented themcarries the battle scars.
But finding an alternative that is effective is a project for STC version 2.
At this point we are trying to find a way to express version 1 in utypes,
and that means having to deal with substitution groups.

Cheers,

  - Arnold
