you are completely right. Since at the beginning I tried to do
something like
sage: a = gap("Z(7)")
sage: a.sage()
and that didn't work I assumed that everything needed to be
reimplemented from scratch. Indeed the only thing that needed
implementation was the conversion of GAP finite fields into sage ones
for non-prime fields and cyclotomic fields. I have rewritten the
function wrapping those methods and putting everything together in a
single patch.
Sorry for wasting so much of everybody's time with this discussion. At
least now conversion of cyclotomic elements should work seamlessly.
Cheers
