 Replying to [comment:15 novoselt]:

 eliminate isinstance.

 I like the looks of the new version.  I did discover one problem.

 {{{
 sage: V = span(ZZ, [[1,2,3/4]])
 sage: V
 Free module of degree 3 and rank 1 over Integer Ring
 Echelon basis matrix:
 [  1   2 3/4]
 }}}

 I think this can be fixed by passing `R` into the final `span` method in
 the return (rather than `base_ring`.)  This should have been caught by the
 span method, which seems to be the real fault here, I've isolated that at
 #12688.

 I might write a few more doctests for the span() function as part of final
 testing for this.
