Thats definitely a plan. I am going to send a PR soon with the grad, curl, divergence and scalar potential functions that a basic electrostatics module would need. What further enhancements can you think of to the module? Have a look at the code and share your ideas. About implementing a vector module for SymPy, there are various upsides to that. First off, having a core based on SymPy's architecture would probably be much faster than the current implementation (Provided we can provide it as much flexibility as the current one has, with the constraint of immutability). Second, we would like the physics vector-related stuff to be more homogeneous with the rest of SymPy, which it currently is not. However, last summer we did realise that's not an easy job. I would still suggest you look at Prasoon's code (and the the small amount I tried) and see whether you can build such a module.
