Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:41 gagern]:
 > Or, to put it differently, this is not about converting number field
 elements. This is about converting the ''generator'' of a number field,
 which itself is an algebraic number, into a symbolic expression. This
 involves finding solutions of a symbolic polynomial, comparing isolating
 intervals (which is a thing of algebraic numbers not number field
 elements), and if that fails, casting to an algebraic number and comparing
 the result for equality. Seems to me a lot closer to algebraic numbers
 than to number field elements.

 I'd say it's about number field elements with a specified embedding...
