Comment:

 Volker: I am switching it back to needs review as adding new methods and
 actions is not going to happen in the near future and I was not yet going
 to change anything existing in this patch. So let me know if there are any
 picks that have to be fixed and let's leave the rest to the next ticket
 (switching `cone.rays`, `cone.facet_normals`, etc. to this class).

 Florent: apart from wrapping tuple special methods, it still seems to me
 that goals of this class and elements of Cartesian products are quite
 orthogonal, and assumptions on components are completely different, in
 particular this class can be switched from tuples to numpy arrays, as
 Volker suggested, quite easily, because all components live in the same
 space. So I don't think it makes sense to unite these classes, but on the
 other hand this ticket shows that tuples can be wrapped efficiently. Maybe
 one can do something even better, but I didn't want to mess with memory
 allocation and access myself.
