Replying to [comment:2 mhansen]:
> This will break all old code that uses the name= syntax.
Point taken.
> There is a decorator at sage.plot.misc.rename_keyword that could be use
to rename a 'name' keyword argument to 'names'. A useful thing to do
would be to add a flag to that decorator so that a deprecation warning
would be thrown whenever a rename is done.
I think in this case there's a simpler solution, already used in the
`NumberField`function, which allows either `name` or `names`; see the
replacement patch.
