[PEAK] Adding early ambiguity warnings to PEAK-Rules?

Wild idea: use something like

when(f, (A,B), delaycheck)(...)
when(f, (B,A), delaycheck)(...)

del delaycheck

and trigger check when delaycheck is collected or at first call f() to
warn about missing 'del delaycheck'. If no delaycheck is provided do
checks normal way
