Hi, even with an UsualOrderedType, extensionality is not true in
general for FSets since it depends on the actual representation : two
different AVLs can represent the same set for instance. Even with
sorted lists, where you might expect the property to be true, it would
require the proof-irrelevance of the proof that the list is sorted.
