Since you have a lot more things to add to your list, you  should
delete the p-adic arithmetic item, since that already exists in pari.
(I am not saying taht the capabilities are the same, but I have been
using pari/gp for p-adic arithmetic for years).

You could also say that sparse LA over GF(p) has been implemented in
my modular symbols code for many years too, but that is a different
situation really.
