The two behaviors that I have heard suggested are:
1) If any of the inputs are a NaN, the median should be a NaN.
(Propagating the NaN as indicator of a numeric error)
2) Remove the NaNs from the input set and process what is left. If
nothing, then return a NaN (treating NaN as a 'No Data' placeholder).
3) Raise an exception.
I can't believe anyone even suggested 2). "In the face of ambiguity,
refuse the temptation to guess."
