I agree.
I also don't really feel satisfied with the way all these polynomials are
stored right now, but I'm not sure I'll come up with anything quickly.

a mistake in one of the algorithms in the article of Heath and Loehr cited
in the code. We should check that the error is not in this patch.

I think it's fixed in David's implementation.
That's what got me confused at
http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/8335#comment:55 because I thought the
addition David made were not needed, and then i realized they were:
