Done, it is # 4621. By the way, the above problem appears even more directly: sage: F.<a>= NumberField(x^2-2) sage: 2 in QQbar True sage: F(2) in QQbar False Although F has no canonical embedding into QQbar, my understanding is that there is a hopefully unique maximal subfield of F that does have a canonical embedding into QQbar. If this is correct, there could be a method F.max_subfield_coercing_into(QQbar), and since F(2) is in that subfield, one has a reason to expect `F(2) in QQbar` to be True.
