Comment (by tscrim):

 This currently breaks the requirements of a coercion in that the coercion
 map must be defined on all elements of the domain. So it will need to be a
 conversion, which you can implement in the `_element_constructor_` method
 by
 {{{#!python
 if isinstance(x, SymmetricGroupAlgebra.Element) and
 other_conditions_on_parent(x):
     return convert_to_element_of_self(x)
 }}}
 For those diagram algebras which this is well-defined on the entire
 domain, you can make the call to ``self`` a coercion in the constructor or
 implement:
 {{{#!python
 def _coerce_map_from_(self, P):
     if isinstance(P, SymmetricGroupAlgebra) and other_conditions(P):
         return True
     return super(self, DiagramAlgebra)._coerce_map_from_(P)
 }}}
