Hi Bruno

I think in terms of performance it might be better to keep MatchMaker in IP2 
rather to add some in the Law functor. Further I think maybe we could get rid 
of includeMoment=True/False in the Law functor.

My suggestion is MatchMaker for eta, krot and ktwist. This makes as well more 
sense if looking at the use of various materials. includeMoment can then be 
set by the Ip2 functor (it can be an internal variable of the Ip2) by checking 
if krot or ktwist are defined.

What do you think about this suggestion? If you are happy I would try it?

Cheers
Klaus
