Comment (by nthiery):

 Ok, I had missed the fact that the poset you created was indexed by the
 cells (i,j). That's a reasonable reason to put at least a shorthand in
 partition.

 I let you chose the final design and timeline (for this ticket or later)
 for the best, knowing that:

 - Having a method on standard fillings that build the poset would be
 generally useful

 - Having a method on partitions building a standard filling containing the
 coordinates of the cells could be useful elsewhere.

 - The cost of checking that all entries of a filling are distinct and
 hashable is really negligible compared to that of building a poset.

 - I for myself would not have looked for such a method in Partition in the
 first place :-)

 - The name "poset", for a partition, is not explicit enough. I would need
 to read the documentation to know which poset this is about.

 Cheers,
