m[range(n),range(n)]=new_diagonal Will that work with range objects (in Python 3)?

No. The automatic conversion to arrays does not consume iterators (nor will it when we port to Python 3).
Sure, but range objects are not iterators. They are "almost" sequences.
The answer is still no. Perhaps someone will write special support for that type when we do the Python 3 port, but there's nothing in numpy that would make it work automatically. For example, xrange() does not work as an index with the current numpy. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco
