I would not do that. There is very little of networkX left in Sage -
at least for all performance critical things and Sage's graph code has
been moving further and further away from it. There should be a lot of
the graph theory code in the reference manual.

Yep, that is highly recommended.

All open graph related wish list item and bugs can be found at
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&group=resolution&max=1200&component=graph+theory&order=id&col=id&col=summary&col=owner&col=type&col=priority&col=component&col=reporter
The best thing for you to do would be to work on something you are
passionate about :)
Cheers,
Michael
