 > This breaks pickling:
 Yes but by "handling of the cache" I had in mind not a call to
 `_clear_cache_` but rather adding a
 unique tag to the constructor, such as the time tag that you already
 suggested. In this way, pickling would work. But I agree that this is a
 trick and that manifolds do not have a unique (mathematical)
 representation. However, given that in general we cannot decide whether
 two given manifolds are equal (isomorphic), making each of them unique
 with some tag could be an idea... What would be the drawbacks?
