Not as far as I know.  The whole indexed object stuff in SymPy right
now is a little shaky, so there's the question of what it would even
do as far as converting x to x[i].

But if all it is is converting a Derivative into some expression,
couldn't the whole thing be done with a single call to .replace()?  I
suppose things get a little more tricky than that for higher order
derivatives, but not by much.
