Comment (by robertwb):

 I tried that first. The problem is f.coefficient(x) returns everything
 divisible by one power of x, not the x (alone) term

 {{{
 sage: R.<x,y> = QQ[]
 sage: f = x^2 + x*y + y^2*x
 sage: f.coef
 f.coefficient   f.coefficients
 sage: f.coefficient(x)
 y^2 + y
 sage: f.coefficient(y^2)
 x
 }}}

 It is also harder to exclude bad terms using that method.
