Comment:

 Hi Jan,

 If you have a suggestion, I don't mind that you do it. And we can discuss
 it. I do not find acceptable that you come and set your branch as default.

 Now, concretely about your commit: `R.random_element(degree=whatever)`
 will '''never''' return the zero polynomial. So I would not say that it
 "works".

 The new commit handles the case of `degree=-1` which correspond to the
 zero polynomial.

 Vincent
