Ok I'm glad that's settled; however, do I understand correctly (after
looking at the new numpy.matlib for the first time), that
numpy.matlib.rand() still doesn't accept tuples, and that the
tuple-accepting "full" version is not exposed in numpy.matlib?

If so, it would be perfect if numpy.matlib could be augmented by a
matrix analogue pointing to numpy.random.random() or whatever its full
name is. Then the situation for matrix users is actually quite nice,
just have to import everything from numpy.matlib.

Thanks,
Sven
