 Bill, I would be very interested if you could elaborate on this point in 
more detail (assume I don't know anything about Aldor/Spad because it is so 
long ago that I read the manual for Aldor that I really have forgotten how 
this works over there).

I'm currently implementing a system in Julia which really follows the 
design of Sage's parent/element setup quite closely (we tried another 
approach, but it failed). Since the project I'm working on is yet very 
young, I'd like to understand what is unpalatable about the Sage approach, 
since I'm essentially using it.

Bill.
