 I don't have the time to verify whether there is an overlap. But: ''If''
 there is an overlap then it is with #9944 or #9138. These two tickets try
 to make all rings use the category framework properly, and in some cases
 it also provides them with the new coercion model.

 If what you do is about something else but rings, then it is very likely
 that there is no overlap.

 Best regards,

 Simon
