Sparse-merge

[Richard Hindmarsh]

According to a recent e-mail from John Eaton, sparse was going to be 
merged into the main part of Octave soon, but

(Q1) Am I right in concluding that this didn't occur in time for 2.1.67?

(Q2) When it does occur, will I be able to do e.g.

ASM = sparse(3,3);
ASM(1,1) = 1;

without turning ASM into a full matrix?

Thanks
Richard
