+++ Author: Gabriel Dos Reis
+++ Date Created: August 20, 2008
+++ Also See: Union(T,"failed")
+++ Description:
+++ This domain implements the notion of optional vallue, where
+++ a computation may fail to produce expected value.
+++ Note: Ideally, this domain definition should be a one-liner.
+++ That is currently impossible because of mismatch between
+++ the `old representation' and `new representation' for domains.
