Comment(by zimmerma):

 note that there are issues with the current polylog function:
 {{{
 sage: polylog(2,1.0)
 1/6*pi^2
 sage: polylog(2,0.9)
 polylog(2, 0.900000000000000)
 }}}
 The first command should not evaluate symbolically, since the input 1.0 is
 a floating-point.
 The second command should evaluate numerically, like for example
 {{{bessel_J(2,0.9)}}}.

 Should I open a separate ticket?
