Comment (by mmarco):

 Sage's FreeGroup implementation is mostly a wrapper around GAP's. I think
 we should keep that since it is the basis for FinitelyPresentedGroups, and
 BraidGroup's which are also wrapped around GAP.


 Elements of a FreeGroup are represented internally as a Tietze list, so it
 should be easy to translate from that representation to the one based in
 words and back (as long as the names of the generators is kept clear). So,
 instead of rewriting the implementation, I would vote for implementing
 that translation (which could be interesting in itself), and use that to
 call your code.
