Comment (by nthiery):

 I actually done a good chunk of work in this direction. However I very
 soon realized that, to avoid changing a lot of doctests temporarilly
 and reverting them back later on, we really want to have a class for
 integer vectors of a given length (with constraints). A disjoint union is
 not enough. Indeed quite some of the doctests are about things like
 checking containment which is not available with a disjoint union.

 The natural thing to implement this class is to base it on
 `IntegerLists` (not `IntegerListsLex`). Since the code base for the
 later is in a state of flux, I'd rather wait a couple days and base
 the work on #18109. I also want to focus on other things with people
 during the Sage days here. I guess it would be doable within the next
 two week.

 Or we can go for a temporary solution, but it feels like just
 additional work for not much value: casual users won't benefit from
 work here before 6.7 anyway, we are not in total rush.
