 The SchubertPolynomialRing expects a permutation as an index. When a list
 is given which is not a permutation, the object is created anyway. The
 problem comes when one tries to expand the polynomial, if the index is not
 a valid permutation, it makes symmetrica crash which makes Sage crash !

 {{{
 sage: S = SchubertPolynomialRing(ZZ)
 sage: pol = S([2,1,3])
 sage: pol.expand()
 x0
 sage: pol = S([2,1,1])
 sage: pol.expand()
 function: mult_apply_integer(2)
 python: function: mult_apply_integer(2)
 : Operation not permitted
 }}}
 So the idea would be to check when the polynomial is created that the
 input is correct and raise an exception at this point if it's not. [[BR]]
