Comment(by SimonKing):
I am currently overhauling the InfinitePolynomialRing code, and I do so at
ticket #7580.
My impression is that it would simplify the work flow if this ticket would
be closed as unresolved, and that the implementation of tab completion
should be part of #7580.
Also, I found that the method {{{_getAttributeNames}}} is not needed. It
suffices for both tab completion and introspection if the
{{{__getattr__}}} method returns {{{dir(underlying polynomial}}} if the
attribute {{{__methods__}}} is requested.
I only wonder if it is dangerous to make {{{p.__methods__}}} return things
that aren't methods. However, when I googled for it, my impression was
that the use of {{{__methods__}}} in Python is not consistent. What is the
Sage policy?
And do you agree that the work should be moved to #7580 ?
