 Tobias Pulls pointed out that his APE system actually randomized the
 *parameters* of the probability distributions that he used, for each
 circuit.

 If this is indeed helpful (it probably is), we should find out which form
 or forms of per-circuit parameter randomization is best to use, and get it
 supported by the circuit padding framework.
