 Priority:  major                        |    Milestone:  sage-3.4  
Component:  number theory                |   Resolution:            
 Keywords:  random element number field  |

Comment (by AlexGhitza):

 OK, the attached patch implements the simple idea given above.  More
 precisely: let a be a primitive element of K, then every element of K can
 be written as a polynomial of degree (at most) [K:QQ]-1 in the variable a,
 with rational coefficients.  Therefore the function returns a random
 polynomial of this type.
