Comment #3 on issue 1660 by ondrej.certik: [PATCH] derivatives of composed  
functions should not evaluate to a derivative in terms of a function
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=1660

First of all, thanks for the contribution and sorry for my late reply.

I agree that it should be improved. I disagree with removing the following  
tests:

-    assert f(x).diff(x) == Derivative(f(x), x)
-    assert (f(x)**3).diff(x) == 3*f(x)**2*f(x).diff(x)

I think those are valid tests, aren't they? The discussable part is what to  
do with
f(2*x).diff(x), etc.

I think we need to improve the Derivative class to be able to represent  
derivatives
with respect to any point.
