Comment (by cremona):

 Hi Marco,  I think that a warning in the documentation is needed, despite
 your clever way of interpreting the output in the general case as correct!
 Your interpretation makes perfect sense, but... In my example, just to add
 to possible confusion, the curve (which has genus 3) has a plane quartic
 model over QQ, though in a moduli-theoric sense it is defined over the
 field I call QQ(zeta13++), the cubic subfield of QQ*zeta13).  But while
 there is a well-defined action of {{{(Z/NZ)^*}}} on cusps c in
 {{{P^1(QQ)}}} corresponding to the interpretation of c as a cusp of
 Gamma(N), i.e. commuting with the action of Gamma(N), it does not commute
 with the action of arbitrary congruence subgroups of level N.
