-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
In #14976 charpent suggests to return lists of results from Maxima
integral/ODE computations instead of forcing the user to stop, input an
assumption, and calculate again. It would be consistent with the output of
`solve` which doesn't shy from multiple solutions and returns a list as
well in this case. To have the list members as
`tuple(assumption,solution)` would be natural, and so this modus should be
default, and would remove one of the most awkward behaviours of Sage for
beginners. It still allows to assume beforehand, and to then get only that
solution for the existing assumption. The difference is that, if no
assumption exists, there is still immediate output of results.
