hi,

to put my 2 cents too.

for sparse objects I added the function:

void prune(Scalar reference, RealScalar epsilon = precision<RealScalar>());

which exactly does what Keir proposed. So, at least we should use the
same API for both.

Now, for dense object you can implement it like this:

eps = epsilon*reference;
m = (m.abs().cwise() < eps).select(0, m);

and finally, we do have what Ben proposed. It is just called
unaryOp(), binaryOp(), redux() and visitor() according to which kind
of functor you want to apply. They work with vectorization if you
define the function "packet()" in your functor (and specialize struct
ei_functor_traits accordingly, see src/Core/Functors.h for examples)

That means, that you can already do something like:

m1.binaryOp<std::less>(b) instead of a.cwise() < m2

or

m1.unaryOp< _something_complicated_mixing_std::less_and_std::bind_and_s_>(b)
instead of "a.cwise() < s" where s is a scalar.
