I have some understanding of categories in Sage.  However, I gave up
in frustration trying to apply 11900 and the
required prerequisites, because I got tired of stuff like:

Hunk #1 FAILED at 1
1 out of 1 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file sage/monoids/monoid.py.rej
patching file sage/rings/finite_rings/integer_mod_ring.py
Hunk #1 FAILED at 44
Hunk #2 FAILED at 78
Hunk #3 FAILED at 112
Hunk #4 FAILED at 122
...
Hunk #25 FAILED at ...

Etc.

I don't even know where to begin to get a copy of Sage with the
patches from 11900 going.  So, as a kindness to the reviewer (who may
be me), can somebody build (or extract) a copy of Sage-4.7.3.alpha1
(say) on sage.math, apply all relevant patches for 11900, run "make
ptestlong" and confirm that all tests pass, and make a bdist of the
result?  Then respond to this thread with a link to the bdist.  To do
the *interesting* part of referring this ticket I just need:

  (1) that bdist
  (2) to look at the patches linked to from 11900.

When I'm reviewing, I need to be able to try out stuff with all the
patches applied, to see what funny things I find.
