Comment (by vdelecroix):

 Relying on `globals` is not very safe
 {{{
 sage: magma = MyMagmaStructure()
 sage: bernoulli(3, algorithm='magma') # boom
 }}}

 I think that the magma interface (and all interface in general) should
 just have some default configurable parameters. That would be used with
 something like
 {{{
 sage: sage.interfaces.config('magma', server=X', command='Y')
 }}}
