This, IMHO is clearly an implementation thing.
The rest of your mail, too, I guess.
Current state of affairs is that at construction time, the Accessor of the
collection finds out if it has the ingredients necessary to construct itself.
If not, it throws an exception. What you suggest is to give within the config
file assertions to the GIFT that it will be able to construct a given
collection.

I do think that is possible at present: there are algorithms which can be
composed of other algorithms, no one requires you to do the fancy blocking
stuff, you could make an IF with text features only and use it with an IF
using histograms only.
So in fact, what you want to do is adding a convenience layer on the
configuration. This in itself is not something bad and given some thoughts
and time for reaching common grounds this is probably something good. However
we have to be careful (IMHO), having MRML itself know more about what it is
handling is also limiting its use.
Cheers,
Wolfgang
