should the `vars` oper be added to the Prelude? about gf

[inariksit]

I don't have an opinion on this; I understand @aarneranta and @krangelov may have some plans to change the behaviour of variants at some point so that it doesn't explode that much?

Another point is that variants are not recommended in the resource grammar in any case, because it's better to have predictable output. It is better to define two functions: e.g. contracted and uncontracted negation in English (don't and do not), or different genders in second person pronoun. Then an application grammar can use variants to allow all of these.

after having this argument twice I'm finally being convinced of this!

still, I think the vars oper seems useful enough as a way to parse typos (but not linearise them!) to warrant its inclusion in the prelude or some other core module...
