It is one of the feature I was interested in when I started to look at
GWL: be able to define procedure. For example, it is possible with
Snakemake because it is Python; but it is not convenient to define a
function that returns a 'rule'. Well, when I write "workflow", I am
always tempted to do "(map proc list)" with 'proc' generating (or
manipulating) "processes" (or other).

I agree.
