 copy(super(Element,self)) work for ElementWrapper? I think I vaguely
 prefer it if it works.

 If you look at the way copy works, you'll realize that there is no chance
 that this works... And indeed:
 {{{
 File "/usr/local/sage/sage-4.2/devel/sage-
 combinat/sage/structure/element.pyx", line 322:
     sage: blo.__dict__ is bla.__dict__
 Expected:
     False
 Got:
     True
 }}}

 Any more suggestion you don't want to try by yourself ;-)
