Comment(by nthiery):

 Hi!

 This patch is merged in, and we want the cluster algebra material to get
 in. So this comment is for the future.

 The functionality implemented in this ticket is rather specific to the
 context of cluster algebras. The average matrix user will have no clue
 what this is about, and might get confused with the unrelated concept of
 mutability (as in set_immutable). So I would recommend, in a later ticket,
 to:

 - Rename this method to something more specific like
 cluster_algebra_mutate
   Maybe even move it into the cluster algebra library
 - Add a minimal description of what the method actually does
 - Add links to the cluster algebra library / tutorial (when it exists)
 - Add link to the _check_symmetrizability
