Actually, on those names: an alternative to your proposal would be to introduce only one new method which can do all types of indexing, depending on a keyword argument, i.e., something like ``` def getitem(self, item, mode='outer'): ... ```
Have I been overthinking this, eh? Just making it `__getitem__(self, index, mode=...)` and then from `vindex` calling the subclasses `__getitem__(self, index, mode="vector")` or so would already solve the issue almost fully? Only thing I am not quite sure about:
1. Is `__getitem__` in some way special to make this difficult (also considering some new ideas like allowing object[a=4]?
OK; I think the C-side slot cannot get the kwarg likely, but probably you can find a solution for that....
2. Do we currently have serious deficiencies we want to fix, and could maybe not fix like that.
