Comment(by novoselt):

 Divisor-related files in schemes/generic were the ones that I didn't look
 at before, but they turn out to be quite short and simple, especially in
 the relevant "truly generic" part. I think we should try to use them
 (preferably without putting toric code into those files, I found it rather
 inconvenient how service-classes of different schemes and spaces are mixed
 in old files).

 The general framework uses formal sums for the divisor group. Your patch
 is likely to be more efficient, since it works with a finite rank subgroup
 of the divisor group, but it does not support divisors on toric varieties
 that are not toric. Would it be possible to implement instead primitive
 toric divisors (i.e. those given by "z_i=0") and work with their formal
 sums as elements of the total divisor group?

 If that would be too inconvenient, it would be nice at least to have some
 class representing the group of torus-invariant divisors with the coercion
 into the general divisor group.
