Nov 14, 2010 at 10:31 comment added David Roberts This is not really much of an answer, but in an answer to a question by Harry Gindi, I find this reference: ens.math.univ-montp2.fr/~toen/m2.html - Toen's course on stacks. In Cours 2 there is a section on what he calls 'geometric contexts', which may be what you are looking for.

Nov 8, 2010 at 19:35 comment added Theo Johnson-Freyd @Todd: oh, good point. I was just going from some "regular monos are trying to be embeddings" claim on nLab, and clearly didn't check anything myself. In any case, one should expect the word "submersion" to need more than just the category; it should need some topology.
Nov 8, 2010 at 0:41 comment added Todd Trimble Theo, I tend to think that regular monos in manifolds are probably closed embeddings. A regular mono is an equalizer, and if we're talking about the underlying spaces being Hausdorff, then regular monos are necessarily closed inclusions. Whether that's sufficient I haven't convinced myself of, but I'm interested in this.
