### bootMer() --- <==>  (TODO: semi-*)parametric bootstrap
### -------------------------------------------------------
## Doc: show how  this is equivalent - but faster than
##              boot(*, R = nsim, sim = "parametric", ran.gen = simulate(.,1,.), mle = x)
## --> return a "boot" object -- so we could use boot.ci() etc
## TODO: also allow "semi-parametric" model-based bootstrap:
##    resampling the (centered!) residuals (for use.u=TRUE) or for use.u=FALSE,
##    *both* the centered u's + centered residuals
##    instead of using  rnorm()
##  BUT see:
## @article{morris_blups_2002,
##      title = {The {BLUPs} are not "best" when it comes to bootstrapping},
##      volume = {56},
##      issn = {0167-7152},
##      url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016771520200041X},
##      doi = {10.1016/S0167-7152(02)00041-X},
##      journal = {Statistics \& Probability Letters},
##      author = {Morris, Jeffrey S},
##      year = {2002},

## for an indication of why this is not necessarily a good idea!
