Comment(by vbraun):

 3. I think copying elementwise is necessary since the lhs and rhs matrices
 have potentially different storage order. In particular for sparse
 matrices, the echelon form is computed with dense matrices and then copied
 back to a sparse matrix.

 It seems like `hermite_form()` is supposed to be an alias for
 `echelon_form()`. But sparse matrices don't have a `hermite_form()`
 method? I'll update the patch to fix that and also your points 1 & 2.
