-----------------------+---------------------------------
 As reported on sage-devel [1], the default hash function implemented in
 `Element` makes it very likely that `hash` and `==` will not agree. With
 this branch, the hash is constant and set to 0, making it less likely.
 Incidentally, it fixes the following bug:
 {{{
     sage: G = groups.presentation.Cyclic(4)
     sage: G.cayley_graph().vertices()
     [1, a, a^2, a^-2, a^3, a^-1]
 }}}
