Comment (by vbraun):

 For the record, we are using `gc.get_referrers()` already in the Sage
 library.

 The alternative is to walk `sys.modules` for lazy imports into modules and
 fall back to what we have for class-level lazy imports.

 But at the end of the day lazy imports are a hack so why not have the
 garbage collector do the work for us?
