I'm sorry to interrupt the resting, but I just wanted to remind 
everybody that Numerical computing people would still like a way to 
distinguish between "element-by-element" multiplication and tensor 
contraction (matrix multiplication).  A new operator could definitely 
help the situation.

The existing dance between matrix objects and array objects to reuse the 
single "*" operator can get confusing.
