[Numpy-discussion] proposal: new logspace without the log in the argument

Some questions it'd be good to get feedback on:

- any better ideas for naming it than "geomspace"? It's really too bad
that the 'logspace' name is already taken.

- I guess the alternative interface might be something like

np.linspace(start, stop, steps, spacing="log")

what do people think?
