Martin Weltz (clicliclic) points out to example from Timofeev:

integrate(tan(x)/(sqrt(tan(x)) - 1)^2, x)

where root sum is over roots of

a^5 - (1/2)*a^3 - (5/8)*a^2 + (9/64)*a - 1/64

which factors as

(54) -> factor(a^5 - (1/2)*a^3 - (5/8)*a^2 + (9/64)*a - 1/64)

                  4    3   1  2   1      1
   (54)  (a - 1)(a  + a  + - a  - - a + --)
                           2      8     64
                                Type: Factored(Polynomial(Fraction(Integer)))

The quartic gives complicated roots when passed to radicalSolve.
'rsimp2.input' which I posted some time ago when applied kernel-by-kernel
can express roots in terms of sqrt(-1) and sqrt(2), but ATM it is
not clear to me if this is good method.  I would prefer to get
simple answer in more direct way.

Equation for real parts of the roots splits into 3 factors:

   [[flag = "prime", factor = 8 u  + 4 u + 1, exponent = 2],
                                  2
    [flag = "prime", factor = 16 u  + 8 u - 1, exponent = 2],
                                  2
    [flag = "prime", factor = 16 u  + 8 u + 3, exponent = 2]]

and 'countRealRoots' finds out that the second one is the
correct factor.  This leads to simple expressions for real
parts:

(28) -> radicalSolve(fl(2).factor)  

                 +-+           +-+
              - \|2  - 1      \|2  - 1
   (28)  [u = ----------, u = --------]
                   4              4
                                    Type: List(Equation(Expression(Integer)))


and complex parts.  So here resolvent works nicely.
