Wow, agreed. Unfortunately, Maxima needs to declare this.
{{{
sage: assume(x,'complex')
sage: (x*conjugate(x)).simplify()
x*conjugate(x)
}}}
I guess a possible workaround would be to have all SR variables declared
`complex` in Maxima when first starting Maxima, and then thereafter... but
it would be very hackish and slow.
