Comment:

 1. Can you change this to only do check=True when the base ring is *not* a
 field:
 {{{
         5408                                check=False, copy=False,
 coerce=False)
         5408                        check=True, copy=False, coerce=False)
 }}}
 Or, better yet, always do check=False unless the components of v are not
 all in the base ring.   The problem is that check=True could be
 *massively* expensive -- you could add hours to the runtimes of real-world
 computations with this one little change.

 2. I'm happy with all the other code.

 I'm running tests and will report in a moment.
