 Projective linear groups such as PGL(n, q) are represented as abstract
 permutation groups.
 {{{
 sage: PGL(2, 13)
 Permutation Group with generators [(3,14,13,12,11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4),
 (1,2,9)(3,8,10)(4,5,12)(6,13,14)]
 }}}
 However, no method has been implemented that represents elements of such
 groups as n-by-n matrices (though there is a method that outputs each
 element as a permutation matrix).  It would be desirable to have such a
 thing.
