Comment (by darij):

 Any idea what to do about this?
 {{{
 sage: Q = QuadraticForm(ZZ, 3, [1,2,3,4,5,6])
 sage: Qp = QuadraticForm(Integers(3), 3, [1,2,3,4,5,6])
 sage: Cl = CliffordAlgebra(Q)
 sage: Clp = CliffordAlgebra(Qp)
 sage: a = Cl.basis()[(1,2)]
 sage: a
 e1*e2
 sage: Clp(a) # so far so good
 e1*e2
 sage: Clp(3*a) # but now
 0*e1*e2
 sage: Clp(3*a) == 0 # not good!
 False
 }}}
 I wouldn't be surprised if other covariant functors had the same bug...
