Sage calls out to Maxima for all of the simplify_foo() functions. It
wouldn't be too hard to tell Sage about the identity and make the
substitution yourself (I was going to attempt it), but doing so is
dependent on having some notion of "simpler" since you don't want it to
return a more complicated expression.

If there isn't one, I will probably try to think up a crazy heuristic.
