That has been working just fine for more than one year, in plain Sage:

sage: CombinatorialFreeModule(QQ, G)
Free module generated by Special Linear Group of degree 2 over Finite Field of 
size 2 over Rational Field

It got refactored in the category rework, and it will deserve further
optimizations some day. And it will need to eventually be renamed to
FreeModule(QQ, G), since there is nothing combinatorial to it. But
that's about it.

Cheers,
