Comment (by SimonKing):

 I think a straight forward way out is to use the correct variable name for
 internal representation.

 With the commits that I am now testing, one would get
 {{{
 sage: K.<t> = FunctionField(QQ)
 sage: R.<x> = QQ[]
 sage: M.<z> = K.extension(x^7-x-t)
 sage: M(x)   # I guess this is important for backwards compatibility
 z
 sage: M('z')
 z
 sage: M('x')
 Traceback (most recent call last):
 ...
 TypeError: unable to convert string
 }}}
 But before pushing, I need to run tests...
