(1) we aren't going to add the .* notation A1 .* A2 to sage, since
there has to be a *very* very strong
demand to ever add anything new the preparser.  We haven't added
anything in as long as I can
remember.  The last thing I wanted to add (implicit multiplication)
even got voted down.

(2) I would love to add a fast optimized function that does multiply
component wise.
