As a minor API note, the design of the group interface was assuming group would 
be used in the context of rings and fields. For that reason, the method on 
group is named "zero" rather than "identity".

So while I acknowledge the request here is mathematically valid, I think it is 
at a finer level of details and refinement than is currently being discussed in 
this PR. Thanks.
