 For heavens' sake, go and read the Sage reference manual -- there's a
 whole huge tutorial on how to implement coercions properly.

 First, I consider this strongly unfriendly.

 Second, after looking again at the coercion section of the reference
 manual, I still don't see what is so disastrously wrong (which obviously
 doesn't mean that it is not wrong), and how to tell a parent to register
 coercion from an infinite family of other parents.
