hi, i didn't read the patch and don't want to comment much, but just
want to point out that the (.,.,.) arguments in python are limited to
255 - at least i think so. this is a nice syntax, but problematic if
you use *args. So, my personal bias would be to avoid this syntax, use
lists, and rather introduce things like an upper and lower offset off
the diagonal ... just my 2 cents ;)
