Comment (by darij):

 OK, the method *is* used, in the `to_ribbon` method. That's a method which
 takes a skew tableau, checks if it is ribbon-shaped (incorrectly), and if
 so, transforms it into a `RibbonShapedTableau`, which is a class in
 `sage/combinat/ribbon_shaped_tableau.py`.

 We can fix this, of course. But I am wondering if we really need
 `sage/combinat/ribbon_shaped_tableau.py`. There is very little
 functionality in that file, and apart from the iterator for standard
 ribbon shaped tableaux (which is easy -- they corresponds to permutations
 in a given descent class), it can be easily reimplemented in the general
 tableaux class. I don't think `sage/combinat/ribbon_shaped_tableau.py` is
 used anywhere...
