Sounds good to me.

A related oddity:
  sage: PolynomialRing(QQ,[singular],1)
  Multivariate Polynomial Ring in Singular over Rational Field

Shouldn't there be at least a warning if the variable names are not
provided as a string but are obtained from repr() applied to the given
argument?

Cheers,
