[Bruno Chareyre <bruno.chareyre@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I confirm that the current behaviour of ElasticContactLaw (requesting 
deletion of interactions as soon as contact is lost), disable capillary 
forces between distant grains.

I'm about to implement a "interactionDetectionFactor" in the same way as 
in InteractingSphere2InteractingSphere4SpheresContactGeometry, and 
delete interaction only if distance is larger than (r1+r2)*factor.

Anybody (Vaçlav?) has a better idea?

Previous behavior : CapillaryLaw coming after ElasticLaw in the loop, 
could set isReal=True(/False when meniscii was lost) for distant 
capillary interactions.
