Comment (by pbruin):
I started to look at the patches, but was immediately struck by a problem
that has nothing to do with finite fields. In
`QuotientFunctor._apply_functor`, the functor R -> R/IR (where I is an
ideal of the base ring) to arbitrary rings. This makes perfect sense for
any R; you just happen to get the zero ring when IR = R. The existing
behaviour is certainly correct (although it is debatable whether the zero
ring should be represented as `Integers(1)`). Why would you want to raise
an exception if R is a field?
