In general, I think it is FAR more useful to spend our time on making the 
documentation for any "educational"/"toy" functions very clear than to 
creating some huge change of a new directory that no one will know about, 
deprecation, broken links, ... Unless people feel that Sage is *only* a 
research tool, there is no reason not to have such functions, as long as it 
is very clear what they do and don't do.  Anyone who is looking for speed 
will presumably be able to bother to read documentation that starts "The 
function easy_squirrel() is only to demonstrate the existence of a 
squirrel; for various algorithms used in actually finding squirrels, please 
see sage.squirrel.blazing_fast()".
