Comment (by chapoton):

 I do not agree. This is a random function, and we should not expect it to
 return a fixed result.

 {{{
 sage: SL2Z.random_element(5, distribution='1/n')
 [-1 -1]
 [ 0 -1]
 sage: SL2Z.random_element(5, distribution='1/n')
 [1 1]
 [0 1]
 sage: SL2Z.random_element(5, distribution='1/n')
 [-1  7]
 [ 1 -8]
 }}}

 The result is random, and the test must be tagged accordingly.
