Something like "bool(x) iff x is not trivially zero" would make sense to
me, where "not trivially zero" means "not exactly identical to the most
simple representation of zero of the given type". Something that can be
used to decide whether a coefficient of a polynomial should be
displayed, for instance. (And that is cheap to test.)
