Comment (by nbruin):

 My $0.02:
  - Don't overengineer this special case (i.e., don't add new API)
  - my preference would be to change the error messages to not include the
 maps. Those errors look ugly even without the warning in there and maps
 tend to print in a rather uninformative way anyway.
  - toning down the warning to just an informative prefix `(map internal to
 coercion system--copy before use)` would be fine with me
  - string chopping seems a reasonable alternative
  - it doesn't look like `TriangleModuleMorphism` is very time critical
 anyway, so a copy of the map would be OK too. If it becomes a bottleneck,
 it can be revisited.
