Comment (by ncohen):
> Everything is impossible to compute once you increase the problem size
too far.
You are oversimplifying. Some finitely presented groups can be described
very easily in either Sage or Gap, and this function can be called quickly
too. Turning them into a permutation group is a very bad move.

Calling non implemented or broken functions, and saying that "it is
somebody else's problem"

It is then up to author of that particular group to override
