Hello!

I apologize for posting this question here but somehow I am not allowed to 
drop questions to sage-support. Moreover I do not feel confident enough to 
post this thing as a bug on the trac wiki.

Working with a large graph G on ~250 vertices I have noticed that elements 
of the automorphism group of G permute ~50 vertices and that most vertices 
are fixed by any automorphism. Hence most orbits of the automorphism group 
contain just singletons. However sage simply discards all vertices that are 
fixed by the automorphism . In my case this resulted in an "incomplete" 
orbit containing just 50 elements. An extreme case happens when one deals 
with an asymmetric graph 

===
sage: G = graphs.RandomRegular(7,50)
sage: G.vertices()
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 
21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 
40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49]
sage: G.automorphism_group().domain()
{1}
sage: G.automorphism_group().orbits()
[[1]]
===

This of course is not the desired result since one assumes orbits partition 
the group.

Is this a bug or am I simply missing some parameter to resolve this issue?
