Comment(by robe):

 Pierre,
 Hope this is what you had in mind.  I've moved ST_AddBand to Raster
 Constructors and renamed Raster Band Accessors and Constructors to just
 Raster Band Accessors.

 Raster accessors was there to hold simple accessors that access properties
 of the overall raster e.g. the srid, dimensions etc.

 Raster Band Accessors / Constructors was to access things specific to a
 band, but since a band is not itself an object (as I think we had
 originally thought we would have) returning a band IS returning a raster
 so there is no such thing as a Raster Band Constructor though you can
 access properties of an individual band.  I must have thought that all
 along since the anchor tag was Raster_Band_Accessors :)

 Feel free to reopen if you are not satisfied with this solution.
