[SciPy-Dev] Extend odeint to handle matrices and complex numbers

[Warren Weckesser]

I wrote a wrapper of odeint called odeintw that is currently available on
github: https://github.com/WarrenWeckesser/odeintw

To quote from README.md in the repository:

    odeintw provides a wrapper of scipy.integrate.odeint that allows
    it to handle complex and matrix differential equations.
    That is, it can solve equations of the form

        dZ/dt = F(Z, t, param1, param2, ...)

    where t is real and Z is a real or complex array.


What do folks think of adding this functionality directly to odeint in
scipy?  It would be completely backwards compatible, and would not
introduce any overhead in the callbacks if the inputs are 1-d real arrays.
