Comment (by jpswanson):

 days64.25 is essentially done, so I'm not sure when I'll get to work on
 this ticket again--hopefully soon. In any case, stuff that still needs to
 be done:

 * Implement coercions to construct skew tableaux from the four formats.
 This will fix most of the remaining failing doctests, be more general,
 remove some special-case code, etc. Figure out how to deal with validation
 in this case--probably turn `from_expr` and friends into underscore
 methods which bypass the coercion framework and optionally bypass
 validation.
 * Turn the dispatcher classes which currently use `__classcall_private__`
 into dispatcher methods.
 * Address the TODO's.
 * Go through documentation:
   * Add doctests to new methods
   * Deal with orphaned doctests
   * Unify Element and Parent docstrings
 * Update the rest of Sage to refer to the new `SkewTableaux` location.
 * Doctest the rest of Sage.

 I also made two changes that might be controversial since they affect how
 user's code works.
 1. I added (optional; default: enabled) validation to `SkewTableau`.
 2. I moved some methods (e.g. `restrict` and `to_chain`) from
 `SkewTableau` to the newly created `SemistandardSkewTableau`.

 My hope is that people are mostly constructing these tableaux by iterating
 over, say, `StandardSkewTableaux(...)`, in which case these are not an
 issue.
