Not only is it desirable to have sparse and full matrices behave

I believe the user should not need to be aware of which storage format
is used so functions like eig() would work for either.
The key is to use the C++ class system to have different implementations
for each storage format.
I haven't been following this thread closely and I haven't thought
much about the details but I have no objection to trying to do a
better job with handling numel and dimensions/indices generally.
Is there some way we can get the better behavior in a minimally
invasive way?
Even if it requires significant changes, maybe we should consider what
the options are anyway.
What changes are needed to make octave_idx_type behave the way you way
you want?
