-1. Finish DirectSumEJA: add to_matrix(), random_instance(),
-   one()... methods. Make it subclass RationalBasisEuclideanJordanAlgebra.
-   This is not a general direct sum / cartesian product implementation,
-   it's used only with the other rationalbasis algebras (to make non-
-   simple EJAs out of the simple ones).
+1. Add references and start citing them.
 
-2. Add references and start citing them.
+2. Profile (and fix?) any remaining slow operations.
 
-3. Implement the octonion simple EJA.
+3. When we take a Cartesian product involving a trivial algebra, we
+   could easily cache the identity and charpoly coefficients using
+   the nontrivial factor. On the other hand, it's nice that we can
+   test out some alternate code paths...
 
-4. Pre-cache charpoly for some small algebras?
+4. Add dimension bounds on any tests over AA that compute element
+   subalgebras.
 
-RealSymmetricEJA(4):
+5. The rational_algebra() stuff doesn't really belong in classes that
+   don't derive from RationalBasisEJA or its as-yet-nonexistent
+   element class.

-5. The main EJA element constructor is happy to convert between
-   e.g. HadamardEJA(3) and JordanSpinEJA(3).
-
-6. Profile the construction of "large" matrix algebras (like the
-   15-dimensional QuaternionHermitianAlgebra(3)) to find out why
-   they're so slow.
-
-7. Drop the element-subalgebra in favor of a regular subalgebra. The
-   cached "one" can be set in the method.
+6. Add special det/trace method overrides for the algebras where we
+   know them? The only reason this might be tricky is because the
+   obvious solution is to subclass EJAElement, but then we might
+   collide with e.g. the Cartesian product element subclass.
