Comment (by nbruin):
I'm not so sure it should. Which quadratic field is the appropriate one?
There are many, distinguishable by the name of their generator (that would
be 'I') for this one, but also by their specified embeddings, and it's not
clear which one to choose.
Is there an argument for doing this? Ticket #17860 referenced in the
description makes no mention of it. I'd imagine there might be evaluation
reasons that might make it attractive. Perhaps those also give an
indication of which quadratic field would be the appropriate one.
