Updated by Here's Bruns's original request:
do you have a function that returns the highest homogeneous component of
a polynomial (with respect to the standard grading)? Or all homogeneous
components as a vector, say?

An interesting suggestion is to have a procedure (with 2 params) which "moves" the leading form of one param into the other. This should avoid copying coeffs/PPs (and so might be automatically exception safe).

Well, it seems that Anna forgot to close this one...
Implemented, documented; appears to work fine.
So closing now.
