Frankly, I completely agree. But that could have implications for many 
users in many places. Is the current behaviour a result of long discussions 
and thought? Should more people chip in before we rush in and change this?

Ok, thanks.

Ok, clear explanation and very good question. I certainly don't want the 
parent to be the vector subspace (as now); it should either be the full 
vector space or the code. I think the former makes most sense, but that's 
due to the same logic as above for vector subspaces...
