 > Before worrying about ideals, first consider the ring O_K. Since the HNF
 is essentially coordinates w.r.t. to a basis, the chosen Z-basis of O_K
 also matters a lot. For quadratic fields, one can easily define a
 canonical basis, but in higher degree that gets a lot more tricky.

 Absolutely right!   We have had alot of such discussions with the LMFDB
 project.  Personally, I will stick to quadratic fields at least as far as
 making databases of elliptic curves is concerned (though the LMFDB does
 have some over the cubic field of discriminant -23).....
