Comment (by vdelecroix):

 Hi Peter,

 Thank you.

 1) I found that your explanation is rather vague: it is not clear if you
 speak about mathematics or the Sage implementation. Moreover, this
 weirdness only concerns pseudo-Conway implementation (which is right now
 the only one). In a future, we might implement Jean-Pierre idea: deal with
 Conway polynomial or have a certified- non-random version of pseudo-
 Conway.

 2) It must absolutely be clear in the documentation of
 `.algebraic_closure` that the pickling is broken! This is the main entry
 point for users.

 3) Do you agree to add to the documentation the different weirdnesses I
 described in my comments ? (possibly in a TODO section)

 Best
 Vincent
