Comment (by jason):
FYI, the special casing is because there is no good way right now to
represent a function from R^n^ to R^m^. I think people would naturally
use either a list, tuple, or vector of symbolic expressions. The Matrix
special case is so that you can do nested jacobians to compute the hessian
matrix, like what is illustrated in the doctests.
