Comment(by ncalexan):

 I would like to evaluate various derivatives numerically, but there's no
 obvious way to do so.
 {{{
 sage: def f(v, n): print v; return v**n
 ....:
 sage: g(x, y).derivative(x, 1).subs( symbolic_diff(g(x, y), w0, w1) ==
 f(w0, w1) )
 $0
 x
 }}}

 I would like to have my `f` examine w0 and w1 to determine the correct
 variable, derivative, etc.  But if you look, f gets evaluated with the
 wild card objects (it must -- that's how python works.)

 So I need to match the wild cards, then calculate the function, then
 substitute.  Just longer, that's all.
