Comment (by SimonKing):

 Next observation: If one creates
 {{{
 sage: I = F.coerce_map_from(F)
 }}}
 and then does `del I`, the homset is again erased from the cache.

 But this must not happen! Namely, `F.coerce_map_from(...)` is supposed to
 use a cache. Granted, the cache is again using weak keys (via
 `TripleDict`), but as long as `F` is kept in memory, the coercion from F
 to F must not vanish.
