I have commited such change. With current trunk:
(1) -> f := operator 'f
(1) f
Type: BasicOperator
(2) -> y := operator 'y
(2) y
Type: BasicOperator
(3) -> kxy := eval(D(f(x,z),[x,z]),z=y(x))
(3) f (x,y(x))
,1,2
Type: Expression(Integer)
(4) -> kyx := eval(D(f(x,z),[z,x]),z=y(x))
(4) f (x,y(x))
,1,2
Type: Expression(Integer)
(5) -> kxy - kyx
(5) 0
Type: Expression(Integer)
