Comment(by cremona):

 That is probably right, but how do you define "normalised"?  I think the
 definition is that the pull-back of the standard differential w_E =
 dx/(2y+a1*x+a3) under the isgeny is again the standard differential;  for
 [m] the pull-back of w is m*w.  Obviously this only makes sense for
 separable isogenies, since otherwise the pull-back of w is 0.

 Or do you in fact mean "cyclic" isogeny?

 We definitely need to be able to handle non-normalised isogenies, if only
 because the dual of a normalised isogeny is not normalised (using my
 definition above).

 I'm in a rush, so apologise if this is nonsense.
