Great! thanks!
When you finish the review, you might better fill the reviewer field with
your name (otherwise the release manager has extra job to do). It should
be filled with your full name. I did it for you anyway.

PS: Actually, I thought that the default answer of .abs() could be an
element of QQbar (whenever an embedding in QQbar is defined). That way we
would have an exact algebraic number and not an approximation. But in
order to do that, there is something to fix with embeddings:
{{{
sage: K.<cbrt2> = NumberField(x^3 - 2, embedding=1)
sage: QQbar.has_coerce_map_from(K)
False
}}}
