 Yes, definitely.  I'd be surprised if this didn't cause doctest failures
 otherwise, since we have `domain:complex` because it made other things
 work in the past.  Otherwise this is a good solution, I think, and gives
 the user more access to Maxima's flexibility without too much effort,
 which is a good thing.
