Comment (by SimonKing):
I think what I need is:
* A parent class whose metaclass is a sub-class of `NestedClassMetaclass`
(such as `UniqueRepresentation`)
* ... so that the `Element` attribute is given as a nested class.
These two properties hold for the `JackPolynomials` example.
What I could do is to create a minimal example in the doc tests.
Unfortunately, I need a source file to make it work -- hence, such a doc
test needs to use the cython(...) function and hence needs a compiler.
I did create a couple of examples of that type in other patches that got
merged, but some people said it is bad practice to have examples that rely
on a compiler.
So, what do you think? Shall I use the compiler, or perhaps create a new
class in the Sage library just for the purpose of testing?
