when method decorators run, the class does not exist yet, so they
temporarily store their information into a module global. Application of
this class decorator copies that global data to the class instance and
clears the global.
Obviously, this mechanism is not thread-safe, which means that the
*creation* of subclasses of Magic should only be done in a single-thread
context. Instantiation of the classes has no restrictions. Given that
these classes are typically created at IPython startup time and before user
application code becomes active, in practice this should not pose any
