I would personaly prefere something like adding a message to memento :
"interpolsub 1 0.1 2 0.4 4 0.5" that would work like setsub but in this 
exemple the result would be : 0.1 * substrate 1 + 0.4 * sub2 + 0.5 * sub4.

(does it make sense?)

by this way, interpolation could not be include in state saving, but 
only in state restoring...

it's a good generic way for parametter interpolation, that does not nead 
to change lot of thing to the curent implementation.

maybe adding fonctionality to pool would be the simpliest way to do this...
