Comment (by mmezzarobba):

 Replying to [comment:9 tscrim]:
 > For matrices with infinities, we want to construct a Coxeter matrix
 without the current hack of representing `oo` with `-1` (in
 `CoxeterMatrixGroup`), nor do we want to use the `SymbolicRing` as we feel
 it is way too heavy-handed of a solution.

 So then I guess you need something like an "Alexandroff extension functor"
 that you could apply to a Parent to adjoin it an element at infinity,
 don't you?
