Yes, we can add methods to an already created class, unless it is a
built in one.  For example, we cannot add methods to Integer or to
str. but we can to Graphics.

See

for when I tried adding a method to Integer... a long time ago.
Coincidentally, the one who answered, Mike Hansen,  is the one who did
the Sage plugin...

I think what you suggest could work.  I think sage simply outputs to
ps, but I do not know if it passes to some structured output before
that...

Peace.
