 Consider this:
 {{{
 import numpy as np
 x = np.arange(5)
 I = np.asmatrix(np.identity(5))
 print np.dot(I, x).shape
 # -> (1, 5)
 }}}
 while `(5, 1)` would be what is expected based on usual linear algebra
 rules.

 It might also be a mistake to return a matrix from mixed matrix--array
 computations.
