 There is no routine in Sage to interpolate points
 ((x,y),(f_1,f_2))\in\mathbb{R}^{2} \times \mathbb{R}^{2} by an arbitrary
 class of functions f\colon\mathbb{R}^{2}\to \mathbb{R}^{2} other than
 splines. Until now, a similar routine exists only for interpolating
 functions \mathbb{R}^{k} \to \mathbb{R}, called
 sage.numerical.optimize.find_fit. It seems to me as one could extend the
 routine "find_fit" to the two-dimensional case with not too much work as
 the underlying routine scipy.optimize.leastsq (see line 645/655) is not
 restricted to the one-dimensional case. The new "model" (cp. line 527 ff.)
 should be a pair of symbolic expressions, of symbolic functions, or of
 python functions. model has to be a function of the variables '(x_1, x_2)`
 and free parameters `(a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_l)'.  Thus I want to propose to
 extend the routine find_fit to the two-dimensional case.
