> But then we're back to the same problem of {{{s.acted_upon_right(p)}}}
not being obvious whether s or p was the one on the right (though it's a
bit better).
It sounds rather clear to me.
> In any case, this behavior is easy to implement in a superclass.
Yes.
> So, is this a positive review (pending all doctests passing, which they
did last I checked)?
Yes, I just wanted to discuss the matter first. Also, part of this may
become obsolete once I will have a prototype implementation of overloaded
operators/functions as in MuPAD, with a declarative interface (the Sage-
combinat people need them anyway for other purposes). I'll post here a
link to the appropriate ticket when times come.
