Comment(by sage-combinat):

 Patch review: trac_5794

 The patch author is a widely acknowledged expert in the area, having
 written a textbook which includes a discussion of the root systems and
 branching rules implemented here.  Although we did not check all of the
 details of the algorithms, the root system code has been used by the
 reviewer to implement the alcove path model for crystals of Lenart and
 Postnikov, and the branching code has computed some verified data in type
 E_6.  This patch implements useful mathematics and the extensive
 documentation includes references to relevant mathematical literature.

 There are currently two warnings for the reference manual (sage -docbuild
 reference html); these require help from Sage developers to be fixed.  The
 Sage library test passes, and all methods have doctests which pass.
