I agree that it would be nice to expose this more directly, but I see two
(small) downsides to putting this in reshape:
1. This would one of those flags that changes a method to an entirely
different mode -- there's not much the way of shared logic with reshape.
2. reshape is written in C (like all ndarray methods, I believe), so
implementing this there will be a little trickier than adding a new
function.

Cheers,
