 people around use Graph functions I wouldn't expect them to, and it's a
 pity otherwise I would know which kind of things should be reimplemented
 more efficiently first !

 well, I discussed at the Sage Days in Seattle in Jan 2011 one possible
 speedup, namely, for graphs with known automorphisms these kinds of
 computations can be done orbit-wise. But nothing has been done in this
 direction...
