Comment (by vbraun):

 Patch applies to sage-5.3.beta1, I'm building sage-5.3.rc0 now to see if
 there is any issue.

 I thought about how to handle things and I'd like to
   * Not make !PolyhedronFace derive from polyhedron - can be confusing as
 not every `Polyhedron` method makes sense.
   * The !PolyhedronFace should have a `polyhedron()` method to get it as a
 polyhedron without reference to ambient
   * Other methods `outward_normal()` or `offset_polyhedron()` (exploded?),
 `plot(color)` to implement what you want.
 Thoughts?
