[off topic] Nothing good ever comes from using Euler matrices. All the cool kids a using quaternions these days. They're (in some ways) simpler, can be interpolated easily, don't suffer from gimbal lock (discontinuity), and are not confused about which axis rotation is applied first (for Euler you much decide whether you want to apply x.y.z or z.y.x).
They'd be a good addition to numpy.
