Comment (by SimonKing):

 See my comment at #10963. We could simply create a lazy class attribute
 with an import statement inside. Proof of concept:
 {{{
 sage: def imported_lazy_class_attribute(module_name, cls_name):
 ....:     return lazy_class_attribute(lambda cls:
 getattr(__import__(module_name, {}, {}, [cls_name]),cls_name))
 ....:
 sage: class Test(object):
 ....:     Finite =
 imported_lazy_class_attribute('sage.categories.finite_permutation_groups',
 'FinitePermutationGroups')
 ....:
 sage: Test.Finite
 <class
 'sage.categories.finite_permutation_groups.FinitePermutationGroups'>
 }}}

 Alternatively, since `LazyImport` has some `__get__`: We could make the
 lazy import ''behave'' as a class attribute, if it is used as attribute of
 a class (`__get__` knows whether it is used as attribute of a class.
