Comment:
After thinking about this a bit more, it still seems meaningful to me to
have an operator `//` that is different from `/`, and that returns the
"Euclidean" quotient in the case of power series over a field. (I am not
sure what to do for power series over '''Z''', for example).
However, both to warn users and because the "correct" `//` seems to be
non-trivial to implement, it is probably good to start by deprecating the
current behaviour where `//` behaves identically to `/`. Hence I am
setting this ticket back to "needs review" and propose to do the
"meaningful" reimplementation of `//` at a later time.
