Comment (by nthiery):

 Ah, yes, that could one way to handle it. Thanks!

 Sorry for the silence. I have been toying with a variant of it,
 putting a similar test in the Homset constructor. I don't know which
 one is best. Yours is more local context-wise (it only affects
 modules); mine is more local code wise.

 However while doing this I stumbled on another issue, which is that
 now {{{X in category}}} is not necessarily equivalent to
 {{{X.category().is_subcategory(category)}}}. This is ok theoretically,
 but there is at least one spot in the code, namely in Hom, where this
 has to be fixed, which in turn opens a can of pickling worms.
 Hopefully I'll have a proposal later tonight.

 Cheers,
                             Nicolas
