New issue 3723 by [email protected]: Multivariate Order()
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=3723

Long time ago, we have: O((x + y)**2, x, y) == O(x**2 + x*y+ y**2, x, y) == O((x + 2*y)**2, x, y). I'm not sure at all, that this is correct. And to preserve such kind of transformations, I had to keep costly expand() call for multivariate O (see issue 3654).

Sadly, but we don't have any formal definition of O(f(x,y),x,y). Moreover, the sentence "O(f(x, y), x, y) is transformed to O(f(x, y).as_leading_term(x,y).as_leading_term(y), x, y)" in the docstring for Order - seems to be wrong too (e.g., check that for f = x*(x + y)).

PS: see some discussion in https://github.com/sympy/sympy/pull/1930
