Comment:

 I pushed my proposal to #16275.

 Thanks to the use of ``X in category`` for sanity checks in Hom, we
 can still handle things like:

 {{{
     Hom(ZZ['x'], ZZ['x'], Modules(ZZ))
 }}}

 even if ``ZZ['x']`` is now in the category of ``Modules(Rings())``
 (which is not a subcategory of ``Modules(ZZ)``).

 I'll work tomorrow on double checking everything once #16275 is merged
 in this ticket. I might end up preferring my hack rather than the
 _Hom_ hack, because the whole _Hom_ protocol is not quite
 satisfactory, and I'd rather avoid it when we can.

 What do you think?
