Proposal #6 at URL:http://www.scipy.org/MatrixIndexing#list-of-proposals is my effort to summarize what Tim was proposing. It does not include the oriented 1d vectors that I think you need (if I have understood you).
I prefer proposal number 1.
PS For beginners, perhaps ``x[[i],:]`` would be better than ``x[i:i+1,:]``. It has other advantages too...
I think this will get beginners lost. From my experience, people take a long time to understand indexing with an iterable. It is actually a source of confusion, but I am not even remotely thinking of removing it, because it is soooo nice, when you know how to use it. Gaƫl
