Replying to [comment:2 kcrisman]:
> Are there times where this notation is ambiguous, though? I seem to
recall that being the case.
I am not aware of any such cases. It's reflecting all information that
sage has stored on the object, so an ambiguity would imply that sage is
working with an ill-defined object.
If you rewrite it in Leibnitz notation using a set of auxiliary variables,
you see that any expression has a clear interpretation.
Go ahead and put it in the docs!
