Comment(by robertwb):

 I have to admit that this seems much more complicated than "simply than
 creating a whole new class for residue fields." In the particular case of
 residue fields, it seems that creating a new Parent would be desirable
 (e.g. it could print better and know where it came from); are there other
 usecases where such re-use would make more sense?

 If it is not easy to simply extend the Parent and re-use most of its
 methods/elements, that should be fixed.
