Well, B[3] is f(q^4) where f is the form that Steve Finch is after. His form is some linear combination of B[0], B[1] and B[3]. But we don't have any nice way of identifying the level 4 things as a subspace of the level 16 things; it's more or less just luck that the fourth echelon basis vector happens to be f(q^4). The fact that you wrote "DirichletGroup(16)(1)" rather than "trivial_character(16)" there suggests you spotted the same bug that I did: there is a bug with the __call__ method of Dirichlet characters, which I have opened a ticket for at http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/5792.
