KSEG requires the Qt library, so it isn't appropriate for SAGE, and
anyways it's completely standalone and people can use it easily
already I think -- I.e. SAGE doesn't have anything to offer.

Based on the demos on the website, etc., C.a.R. looks extremely
interesting.  I had never heard of it before.  I hope some other
people will look into it and report back.  There are even some
nice demos of 3d javascript math graphics on the C.a.R. website.
