New description:
There are a number of tickets open due to the use of `simplify_radical()`
in `simplify_full()`.
Removing it would fix at least,
* [http://ask.sagemath.org/question/767/simplification-errors-in-simple-
expressions Ask Sage 767]
* #3520 - inconsistency in simplify_radical
* #11668 - `abs(a+b)^2 == (a+b)^2`
* #11934 - Symbolic simplification error
* #12322 - invalid simplification of complex logarithm

roots Ask Sage 1983]
And maybe more.

Comment (by kcrisman):
Lest it seem weird that I'm adding to the list in the description, let it
be known that I haven't necessarily changed my mind here, but fairness
dictates that I point this additional example out!
