Ok. Sure, PR's welcome. If you want to submit a PR to base for align, feel free, but I haven't had to much luck with similar PR's.

Hi! I'm glad you find the package useful. I'd be very happy to accept a PR for auto-differentiation (although I'm not sure I could understand it enough to review it)....

Also, on the AD part, have you seen this? https://github.com/mcabbott/SliceMap.jl

I watched the JuliaCon talk where @StefanKarpinski mentioned prioritizing making Julia faster for tabular data and I think solving this would be an important step

Thanks for looking into it! It does seem like an uphill battle
