When working with finite permutation groups, it seems to me that one has 
the choice to either use the groups as sage objects like 
`SymmetricGroup(4)`, or as a Gap object via `libgap.SymmetricGroup(4)`. The 
former has rather limited functionality (and quite a few bugs as reported 
earlier), so the advise was to use the latter concept.

So after setting `g = libgap.SymmetricGroup(4)`, things like 
`g.Stabilizer(1)` work as expected. However, I have difficulties to figure 
out how for instance the equivalent of the Gap code `Stabilizer(g, [1,2], 
OnSets)` would look like. Something like `g. Stabilizer([1, 2], 'OnSets')` 
raises a GapError.


it is

g. Stabilizer([1, 2], libgap.OnSets)


In lengthy code, calling too many keywords such as "libgap" is not elegant 
in my opinion.

(which makes sense, as in GAP you also don't pass a string to Stabilizer, 
but you pass a GAP action)



Are these things documented somewhere? I couldn't find anything.


all we have is 
https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/libs/sage/libs/gap/libgap.html
(and source code, eg in src/sage/graphs/)

 - pull requests welcome 😁
