Comment(by fwclarke):

 == Two comments ==


 1. I can see that "Isomorphism map" is clumsy in, for example,
 {{{
 Isomorphism map:
   From: Number Field in a with defining polynomial x^6 - 3*x^5 + 6*x^4 -
 11*x^3 + 12*x^2 + 3*x + 1
   To:   Number Field in cuberoot2 with defining polynomial x^3 - 2 over
 its base field
 }}}
 but surely "Isomorphism morphism" is worse.  What's wrong with
 "Isomorphism"?

 2.  Why make `subfield_containing` a new function.  To my mind it would
 make more sense to allow `subfield`
 to take a list of elements, as well as a single element (as at present),
 as its second argument?
