Description
category_sample should look deeper in the code to find categories. It currently only looks into sage.categories.all, and misses axiom or covariant functorial construction categories like Sets.Infinite or Sets.CartesianProducts?. It's not clear whether it should include specialized categories like
sage.combinat.ncsf_qsym.generic_basis_code.BasesOfQSymOrNCSF
an_instance should be made to work at least for the categories discovered by category_sample, and possibly more::
sage: Sets.CartesianProducts.an_instance() ... TypeError: __init__() takes at least 2 arguments (1 given)

Just for the record, I attach here a quick hack I did for my PyCon15 lightning talk to extract a graph of categories, by recursively extracting the functorial construction and axiom categories out of the main categories.
Progress note by the way: thanks to #18174, an_instance now works for most functorial constructions:
