Comment (by kcrisman):

 Yes, both helpful!  A few comments.
 * The reviewer patch should be a separate patch on top of the original
 patch, so that the original author is kept.
 * In any case, the patch should have a meaningful commit message.
 * I'm a little apprehensive about the many specific variables and
 functions defined here.  Won't that cause some kind of conflict with (say)
 an already-defined `yy`?  We shouldn't depend on people not needing those
 variables.  Or is everything only in local scope because of the use of
 `SR.symbol`?

 I'm also wondering - is it possible to have an implicit derivative method
 for symbolic expressions?  Just curious.
