----------------------------+------------------------------------
We should remove the default `random_element`, which just raises a
`NotImplementedError` to allow for the `random_element` from the category
to be used. In particular, finite groups should be able to get a random
element:
{{{
sage: W = CoxeterGroup(['D',4])
sage: W.random_element()
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NotImplementedError Traceback (most recent call
last)
...
NotImplementedError:
}}}
