Mark Dickinson added the comment:

The other issue here is that I see factorial as being the thin end of 
the 
wedge.  If factorial were implemented, it would probably only be on the 
order of minutes before people wanted to know where the binomial() 
function was.

So it seems to me that either there should be a good single place for 
all 
integer-related math, (gcd, xgcd, binomial, factorial, ...) or we should 
leave this for third-party modules for the moment.
