I've seen many examples of complicated matrix expressions that really 
benefit from having an infix notation for matrix multiplication. I haven't 
seen many examples of complicated expressions that involve element-wise 
multiplication, and none that mix the two. Therefore, in the absence of two 
infix multiplication operators, would it make sense to have "A*B" denote 
matrix product and "A.hadamard(B)" or "A.elementwise_product(B)" 
element-wise product? This is what sage already does.
