Comment (by kedlaya):

 I'm okay with having a method {{{content_ideal}}} for the generic
 behavior. But what is supposed to be returned by {{{content}}} when the
 content ideal is not principal? This is certainly likely to happen if the
 base ring is the ring of integers in a number field. Perhaps it is best if
 {{{content}}} is only implemented in those cases where it has a sensible
 definition at the level of elements.
