I just checked: currently it is called complexNumeric.  I guess the reason is
that numeric has no way to guess the type of the result otherwise:

(22) -> numeric(sqrt 3::Complex EXPR INT)

   (22)  1.7320508075 688772935
                                                                  Type: Float

But actually, maybe it would make sense to have

numeric: EXPR COMPLEX INT -> Complex Float

and

numeric: EXPR INT -> Float

where the latter fails, if the argument is not real?
