Description

It would be convenient to have an automatic homomorphism P1 -> P2 (differing only for ordering)
which effectively is PolyAlgebraHom(P1, P2, indets(P2)).

How should it be called? CanonicalHom?
but it is quite different from what CanonicalHom means now: a (one step) embedding/quotienting/...

CanonicalPolyAlgebraHom would be good, but it's a bit long ;-)

Should we also think of other canonical (non ambiguous) homomorphisms between polynomial rings?

JAA thinks that CanonicalHom should be fairly general, and not just a "single-step".
Perhaps the "single-step" version could be called CanonicalHom1?

Another convenient homomorphism would be a "BringIn-like" homomorphism (keeping the names of the indets: e.g. x maps to x)
Should we call it BringIn as in CoCoA?
In CoCoA the meaning is slightly different, because the argument is a polynomial, not the homomorphism domain, so we could map x in K[x,y,z] into K[x].
