Comment:

 The code seems functional now. I've also added an {{{is_generic}}} method
 to allow inspection of the '_generic' attribute.

 One thing that might be problematic about this patch is that a few
 routines have changed their signature now: 'serre_cartan_mono_to_string',
 for example, now expects 'generic' as second argument, not 'p'. We might
 instead go for

     {{{def serre_cartan_mono_to_string(data,p,generic=None)}}}

 which would save backward compatibility... I'm not sure if that is
 required, though.
