Comment:

 This looks good, passes tests etc. - yes, talk about premature
 optimization!

 My dumb question is whether we should, in fact, have such nonsensical
 matrices.  In particular
 {{{
 sage: m = identity_matrix(QQ, 4)[4:,:]
 sage: m
 []
 }}}
 Should we instead have something that shows we have four columns?  But of
 course that wouldn't be about this ticket.
