Comment (by jpflori):
Another important question is to know what the AlgebraicClosure structure
should cache.
If its possible not to store all data that was previously cmputed when
some finite fields aren't used anymore, then it can make sense to discard
it (imagine working with pseudo-Conway polynomials and only going up and
up, at some point you won't care about polynomials used for small finite
fields).
This is really arguable, but we (or I at least) had several problems
before (and we still have) because pieces of Sage tend to cache too much.
