Comment (by nbruin):

 By the way, what's your most convincing argument to use an argument order
 opposite to that of maxima? I think your ordering agrees with what maple
 and mathematica have chosen, so it may well be that that is indeed the
 ordering that has most consensus. The wikipedia page is ambiguous since it
 lists `H_{n,m}=H_n^m=H_m(n)`. Referencing explicitly which convention we
 follow will make for a better motivated and more stable interface.
