 Replying to [comment:8 SimonKing]:
 > Sorry, I did not answer Marco's question yet.

 No problem, it wasn't a very direct question.

 > Is it the case that the map is already known at initialisation time?

 Don't know, I'll have to dig through the code some more.

 > Concerning "coercion or conversion between relative and absolute number
 fields", I think there has been at least one thread on sage-nt and also a
 trac ticket devoted to that subject.

 Thanks, I don't know that ticket/thread. I have found

  * [https://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 nt/browse_thread/thread/5c376dbf7e99ea97/]
  * [https://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 nt/browse_thread/thread/32b65a5173f43267/]
  * [https://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 nt/browse_thread/thread/9108218411e7f0a6/]

 The first two are about coercions between number fields, but don't say
 anything about relative versus absolute. The third is about conversions,
 again no relative versus absolute.

 I also did another search on trac, and could only find the tickets I
 created last week: #12269 (this ticket) and #12271 (same, but for
 relativize).
