Comment(by nthiery):

 Salut Thierry,

 Rather than having a bunch of functions to return the various pieces of a
 Sloane result, there could be a single object from which one could query
 the pieces via methods. Something like:

 {{{
     sage: s = sloane_find([1,1,2,5,8,14])[0]
     sage: s.description()
     ...
     sage: s[6]
     42
 }}}


 Actually, Anders Claesson [1] had implemented a prototype of this feature
 during FPSAC'09, and his demo was quite cool. I guess he would agree to
 give his code away for someone else to finalize it and merge it into Sage.

 But maybe that should be the topic of a separate ticket.
