I mean this (which already works in SAGE):

sage: R.<x,y> = ZZ[x,y];    # would be x,y=vars('x,y'), which may or may  
not be predefined.
sage: f = sin(x)*cos(x+y+2)

By algebraic expression I mean anything built up from certain
primitives using +,-,/,*,^, and maybe more (e.g., integral,
derivative, etc., I'm not sure).   The structure for this is
already implemented in the sage/functions directory.
