Wow, it seems that Diego did a nice job with all those generic signatures. However, i do not agree completely with you. I think that every variant of a virus should have a signature in the database, even if it is already detected by some generic signature. Why ? Because if we have to remove the generic signature due to some false positives, the variant virus will no longer be detected. So, generic signatures are fine, but I think we should also have signatures for a maximum of variants.
