Comment(by novoselt):

 I'd rather not allow shifting away from the origin, for totally general
 things users should use `Polyhedron`, which allows anything (except that
 it also does not yet compute face lattice of non-strictly convex cones
 ;-)), but is not efficient enough to be in the base of toric varieties.
 Although computing the "standard" dual cone certainly should be added in
 the near future. I never needed them for computations so far, but at least
 from the educational point of view they are important and that's why I
 tried not enforce strict convexity in the design. Anyway, "good" cones
 already create fans on their own ;-)
