Comment (by nthiery):

 Thinking twice about my first feelings ... For a quiver
 representation, I would also tend to have `base_ring` return QQ above,
 and the rep be accordingly in `Modules(QQ)`. So far, in Sage,
 `Modules(R)` is about which ring `R` we do the linear algebra with,
 compute
 bases, etc. Later on we will have a proper hierarchy of categories for
 representations (well, I have some stuff in the Sage-Combinat queue),
 and then it will be time to put the quiver representations in the
 appropriate category of this hierarchy.

 The case of `QQ[x]^3` is a bit different, since we really do the
 linear algebra over `QQ[x]`.

 No strong opinion though ...
