fhahn added a comment. Thank you very much for working on this! Are you planning on implementing the new specification as well? It would probably be good to land the update to the spec in close succession to the implementation, to avoid confusing users.

That looks good, thanks! Another thing to consider is whether we would like to provide a convenient syntax to initialise all elements with an user-specified value, i.e. should we allow something like `m = {99};`, which would broadcast 99 to all elements of the matrix?
