Chris,

How about one of the following:

- feathered matrix
- red-breasted matrix

Sorry :-)

Hello,

Eric's comments on this Bird are very good.

The proper choice of terms for the syntax is very important 
to make the meaning more clear to future users.

Since "banded matrix" has a widely understood meaning that 
does not include the extensions envisioned in Bird 29
I vote for changing the name. Eric suggests (indirectly) 
using "bordered_block". I'm not sure this is the best 
word for it. Any other suggestions?
