Why shouldn't it be bundled with mono? I'd at least like to have those
higher level math structs in the "Mono.Simd.Math" or "Mono.Math" name space
or something similar, and and have the jit engine be more agressive when
inline methods in those classes. Or, have the jit engine act on those
classes in a similar way to the Vector* classes in the "Mono.Simd" name
space.

On a side note, what do you think of the idea of the jit engine acting more
aggressive to inline getters and setters than normal? I looked at the inline
detection code, and realized this could be easily done.
