I am a NumPy user, not a NumPy developer, but I believe the 
example code appropriately produces the desired behavior change.

I believe this is really the last opportunity for this change.
It is clear that it is already almost impossible to make API
changes, even those that like this one are unlikely to 
affect much real code.  So if it is a good idea, as I argue, 
its time has come.

Cheers,
