I agree with Sven on the fact that we need more experience with sboTerms
before to legiferate on precedence etc.

But we already have valid SBML files without kineticLaw (Mike, OK, they
are maybe not "SBML-compliant". But they validate fine and they are
existing). In addition, other math element are optional (e.g.
stoichiometryMath).

Absolutely. I am NOT in favour of replacing kineticLaw by SBO terms. This
is only possible in a very limited amount of case anyway.

Yes.
