Comment:

 I updated the patch.

 Apply trac7797-full_letterplace_wrapper_rel11068.patch

 Depends on #11068

 Actually I am not sure about all dependencies. #11068 should be enough on
 top of sage-4.7.alpha5. However, here is a full account of the patches
 that I had applied to sage-4.7.alpha5 before creating the patch here:
 #10296, #9944, #9138, #9976, #11115, #11068.

 In particular, I think the refactoring of rings, quotient rings and non-
 commutative ideals is successfully solved in #9138 and #11068. Concerning
 unigenerated free algebras, it seems better to stay in the world of free
 algebras, rather than returning a polynomial ring. So, we have
 {{{
 sage: F.<x> = FreeAlgebra(QQ)
 sage: F
 Free Algebra on 1 generators (x,) over Rational Field
 sage: F.is_commutative()
 True
 sage: F.<x> = FreeAlgebra(QQ, implementation='letterplace')
 sage: F
 Free Associative Unital Algebra on 1 generators (x,) over Rational Field
 sage: F.is_commutative()
 True
 }}}

 In principle, it could be reviewed now. But the patch chain in front of it
 is rather large, and not everything has a positive review, yet.

 My next plan: Allow positive integer degree weights on the generators,
 extending the scope of the letterplace wrapper from homogeneous to
 weighted homogeneous elements, and allow degree-wise computation of
 weighted homogeneous Gröbner bases. Note that this goes beyond what is
 currently implemented in Singular, but it should work using a little hack
 (slack variables).
