 In this example, both schemes are empty, so they should be equal as
 subschemes of P^2. However...
 {{{
 sage: P2.<x,y,z> = ProjectiveSpace(2, QQ)
 sage: P2.subscheme([x,y^2,z]) == P2.subscheme([x,y,z])
 False
 }}}
 While I'm at it, an `is_empty` method would be nice. It could be defined
 as follows:
 {{{
 def self.is_empty():
    return (len(self.irreducible_components() == 0)
 }}}
