Comment (by wuthrich):

 I started to work on this a bit.

 I will try to merge it. But I also found a lot of things that I am not
 totally happy with, before that ticket goes in. See below. There is a real
 danger that this patch-bomb ticket never makes it into sage at this rate.
 I would be really sorry about this. Here are the possibilities:

  1. One option  would be to split it up: Put the basic code (i.e. the new
 files) in then in further tickets starts incorporating it into sage step
 by step.

  2. Another option is to accept it in an incomplete version as soon as it
 is rebased and doc-test are corrected and then open new tickets. But that
 means that certain functions will change and deprecation will be all over
 the place.

  3. We try to fix all issues here slowly and hope this converges in finite
 time.

 Right, option 1 would have been the correct decision at the start but I
 fear it is too late for this. Marc probably favours 2 and I would prefer
 3, I must admit, although I am not sure I can put in the effort needed.
