hmm...one more question here then I'll stop, as this is turning into more like a sage-support discussion as opposed to sage-devel.
This does seem to be doing a good job with high enough precision specified. What is the best way to compare two such interval numbers? The multipliers (after applying d) will have a bunch of repeat values, but there will be some minor precision differences. We need to remove those duplicates.
