Not an answer, but similar examples:
sage: Permutation([1,2,3]).parent() # list
Standard permutations
sage: Permutation((1,2,3)).parent() # tuple
Standard permutations of 3
sage: Permutation('[1,2,3]').parent() # string
Standard permutations of 3
sage: Permutation('(1,2,3)').parent() # string
Standard permutations of 3
I don't know why, but I can see in the code that if you pass a list of
integers, it calls "Permutations()([...])", whereas the most of the other
cases do something else.
