 Replying to [comment:10 vdelecroix]:
 > I do not quite understand why you need the creation of a new class of
 `NumberFieldQQi`... is that only for the special method you need in the
 element class?

 I don't remember, it could be that the reason no longer exists due to
 later changes.

 number fields. In the ideal world, you would declare:

 Yes, the idea is to switch to an embedding into QQbar when other number
 fields do.
