Comment (by ncohen):

 > It is not only about conversion. !ProjectivePlaneDesign is buggy: there
 is crazy argument "type" which makes specification a bit more complicated:
 >  - if type is None: do what you know is the best and return '''a'''
 projective plane
 >  - if type is something: do whatever the construction tells you and
 return '''the''' corresponding projective plane

 This ticket is no place to fix that.

 > Now if you incorporate the `who_asked` feature. It becomes crazy! I feel
 like `type` and `who_asked` are rather incompatible. To my mind, we should
 simply remove `ProjectivePlaneDesign` and have different functions (which
 raise only `ValueError` on bad entries) for each kind of projective planes
 we know about.

 Vincent, the "type" keyword is not even USED. Remove it if it makes it
 easier for you.
