Sure. The long discussion about this on sage-devel in November did not
end up in a black hole. This is work in progress in Sage-Combinat.  I
still hope to be able to get the category infrastructure into Sage 3.5.

Of course, making all of Sage systematically use this infrastructure
will take more time.

Cheers,
                                Nicolas
