Comment (by lftabera):

 This patch will have no effect on that. There are no rings with int
 weighted order or Integer weighted order.

 When you create a multivariate polynomial ring, you select a TermOrder,
 with degrevlex as default.

 However, in some cases, a user may want to compute the degree of a
 polynomial with a weighted term order that is *different* from the term
 order of the underlying ring. In this, and only in this case the
 weighted_degree method will play a role. In `QQ['x,y']` and `GF(p)['x,y']`
 singular will be used, so for usual operations of addition and
 multiplication will use the singular implementation of term orders. This
 patch will not change that.

 {{{
 sage: K=PolynomialRing(QQ, 'a,b,c', order=TermOrder('wdeglex',(7,8,9)))
 sage: a,b,c=K.gens()
 sage: f = a+b**3+c**4
 sage: f.degree() # uses the weights of K, it is singular who compute this.
 36
 sage: f.weighted_degree([7,8,9]) #My patch, not computed using singular.
 36
 sage: f.weighted_degree([1,3,-3]) #My patch, not computed using singular.
 9
 sage: #The term order of the underlying ring does not change.
 sage: f.parent().term_order()
 Weighted degree lexicographic term order with weights (7, 8, 9)
 }}}
