In the lib. Keep euphoria have 4 types atom integer object sequence.

Yes, I also think that types are not necessary, but nevertheless we use
types there for error checking. User and eu2c can use without type_check for
performance. 

Types are also used in file.e and Rob's standard library.

Probably (still probably) datetime will be more efficient using atom as 
the internal representation than {year, month, date}.
