 Pretty sweet indeed!

 Having cartan_type return a Cartan matrix would seem just natural to
 me, as long as all operations on cartan types (building the root
 system, the weyl group, ...) are available from a cartan matrix (they
 should). In the long run, we probably want to rename all our
 cartan_type methods to cartan_datum.

 Cheers,
