Comment (by nbruin):
Consider
{{{
R=QQ['t']
S=R['t']
}}}
If this results in `S==Q['t1']['t2']` then `S.basering() != R`, and in
fact R will not coerce into `S`. That's really bad. Print names of
generators are part of the mathematical identity of an object in Sage. We
can't change what is supplied, since you wouldn't be producing what is
asked for.
