I like it too, and I hope that if the book gets translated that this comes 
along and doesn't get translated to "ultra-powerful", since "puissant" is
infrequently utilized in English. I do realize that "power" is also a loan 
word from French, but "OCaml, An Ultra-Puissant Language" sounds just too 
good to resist.
