In general, I completely agree with your sentiment: too many times a patch
has not been finished because it was not the "optimal" solution. However,
this only applies if the halfway-implemented patch makes the situation
better.
For this particular ticket, I feel that having a halfway-implemented
sage_root repository is strictly worse than having no sage_root repository
at all. The situation for merging SAGE_ROOT patches is already
complicated enough (but I can manage) and I'm afraid the current patch on
this ticket will make it only worse.
This is not a ticket I want to "rush" into Sage.
