Comment (by rws):
Thierry, I agree fully but:

> This is non-pythonic, requires additional preparsing, needs to create
the name `R` while the ring `SR` is already here, and will add even more
confusion to newcomers that hardly understand the difference between a
symbolic expression like `x^2+1` and a well defined polynomial over a well
defined ring.
But it would be consistent and allow different ring types (later).
Actually `declare_var` could be provided additionally.
