I could live with it either way, but I will point out that the "Examples"
section implies an equivalence between:
  R> xsum <- rowsum(x, group)
and
  R> xsum2 <- tapply(x, list(group[row(x)], col(x)), sum)
  R> xsum3 <- aggregate(x, list(group), sum)
which is broken by this new behavior; xsum2 and xsum3 are (1xN) matrices.
