New description:
Python's builtins such as `str`, `set`, `frozenset` used to be documented
as functions instead of as classes. We had a workaround for that which is
no longer working for `object`, `str`, and many of the issues have already
been solved at Python's level.
See for examples the base classes that are broken for the two following
classes:
[[http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/combinat/sage/combinat/words/word_generators.html#sage.combinat.words.word_generators.WordGenerator|WordGenerator]]
[[http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/misc/sage/misc/lazy_format.html?highlight=lazy%20format
#module-sage.misc.lazy_format|lazy_format]]
Unfortunately, it's still needed for tuples:
[[http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/combinat/sage/combinat/shard_order.html|shard_order]]
Indeed, the overall situation seems to be unclear from the Python side,
