Documentation
An evolvers is composed of a BootStrapSet followed by a MainLoopSet.
Each of these sets contains a list operators to apply. As the name of
all usable operators are not known beforehand so the content is relaxed
to the use of any type. The real condition is that only elements
associated to operators can be used.
