Comment (by tscrim):

 Hey Mike,

 The biggest thing why it's not imported is the name, I didn't think just
 calling it `DualSymmetricFunctionsNonCommutingVariables` was more
 descriptive than calling
 `SymmetricFunctionsNonCommutingVariables(QQ).dual()` (and it's not much
 shorter to call). I'm not 100% happy with the name (being the global
 namespace) since I seem to want to attach dual to function, as in the dual
 symmetric functions (as in linear functionals) in non-commuting variables.
 I know it doesn't make much sense, but it sounded more descriptive than
 `SymmetricFunctionsNonCommutingVariablesDual`. I'll import `Dual*` in the
 next version unless we come up with a better name. I can't think of one
 right now... Franco, you have any ideas as well?

 I'll use http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0605262 to give a realization and also
 define a coercion from `QSym` into `DNCSym`.

 Hey Darij,

 Yes, up to abuse of labels on commutative diagrams. I'll change it to
 explicitly state that {{{`\chi \circ p = \phi` on Sym}}} (up to function
 names).

 Best,[[BR]]
 Travis
