Comment:

 I am not sure I agree with your diagnosis on the sage-devel thread. The
 definition of the old submodule as the sum of the images of the degeneracy
 level-raising maps makes perfect sense in this setting; it won't be
 orthogonal to the kernel of the level-lowering maps, but it should still
 be Hecke-invariant and the space Sage is returning here just isn't:

 {{{
 #!python
 sage: M22 = ModularSymbols(Gamma1(22), sign=1)
 sage: M2 = ModularSymbols(Gamma1(2))
 sage: d1 = M2.degeneracy_map(M22,1)
 sage: d2 = M2.degeneracy_map(M22,11)
 sage: M22.hecke_matrix(17).restrict((d1.image() +
 d2.image()).free_module())
 ...
 ArithmeticError: subspace is not invariant under matrix
 }}}
 The problem, I think, is this:
 {{{
 sage: M2
 Modular Symbols space of dimension 1 for Gamma_0(2) of weight 2 with sign
 0 over Rational Field
 }}}
 and thus M2 is trying to use code intended for passing between Gamma0
 levels instead of Gamma1 levels.

 I will fix this during SD51 if I have time.
