In principle, this document needs to be massively updated or simply 
integrated (when useful) into the rest of the documentation.

The best outcome would be to have a true "how do I do *** in Sage" document 
that keeps being updated; that would go a long way toward resolving the 
current issue that the reference manual is too granular, the tutorial not 
detailed enough (which one would expect of both such documents).  But that 
is a big job.

Interesting.  A lot of this should go in the Tutorial or FAQ, I think.

This is what happens when you don't have a cathedral planner.
