Comment(by cremona):

 How hard would it be to eliminate repeated gens after any ideal
 multiplication?  And would that make this particular example run in
 reasonable time?

 Note that in a Dedekind domain if I = (a,b) then I^n = (a^n,b^n)
 [exercise!] which is surely a special case worth catching!

 Otherwise I suppose we could have an option to return the conductor  in
 factored form.  When I compute conductors over number fields I almost
 always factor it right away (which is a bit silly when that poor ideal has
 only just been multiplied together), and take its norm and factor that;
 rarely would I want to see the conductor as an ideal unless it were
 principal.
