Comment (by SimonKing):
Replying to [comment:24 nthiery]:

> name for "non unital algebras"? I am not really keen on
> "NotNecessarilyUnitalAlgebras".
Yes. A not necessarily unital not necessarily associative not necessarily
finite-dimensional not necessarily noetherian not necessarily ... is
commonly known as an '''algebra'''.
In other words, I suggest to name the categories exactly parallel to the
axioms it provides. Actually, before reading your patch, I thought that
you aim to ''automatically'' create a category of "associative algebras",
given the category of algebras and the axiom "associative".
Hence, I think it should be
{{{
algebras
/ \
associative algebras unital algebras
\ /
associative unital algebras
}}}
and similar for commutative algebras, commutative associative algebras,
commutative associative unital algebras, and so on.
