Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:19 cremona]:
 > I know that this is not yet marked as ready for review, but I did look
 at the code anyway.  One minor remark:  after adjoining all the
 x-coordinates of the p-division points, *either* you have the full
 division field already, i.e. you have all the y-coordinates, *or* you have
 none, i.e. you have none of the y-coordinates.  This could be used,
 possibly, to simplify that last part of the division field code.  But it
 is not clear to me that there is a quicker way of determining that final
 quadratic extension than picking any of the x-coordinates of a p-division
 point and solving for y.
 Not that I don't believe you, but do you have a reference for this? At
 least I could add it as a comment in the code.
