While we are at this, let me mention that the way latex() handles operation
tables of algebraic objects needs to be fixed. There are a couple of
tickets on this theme:

1.  http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/11362
2. http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/10787

I am willing to work on this ticket if someone will give me some pointers.
