Given that Matrix{T}(I, (m,n)) works for rectangular matrices m != n, I would also expect copyto!(A,I) to work. I often use this to initialize an existing matrix with ones on the diagonal, even if it is rectangular.

An example is in LinearAlgebra, suppose you want to materialize the q factor in a QR decomposition. You might have two equally sized matrices A and B lying around:

using LinearAlgebra
Q,R = qr!(A)
Qmaterialized = lmul!(Q, copyto!(B,I))

I'll probably need to update some tests as well?

Tests would be lovely! It seems the UniformScaling tests lack anything for copyto! presently? Best!

You're welcome. I assume the one travis error is unrelated? Sorry about the whitespace error at first; I edited online using Github, and indenting a blank line the same as the surrounding code lines seems to be the default.

Hah, funny, yes, that test failure is unrelated. Looks like it's the totally_not_five26034 test struct that introduces ambiguities… and it'll only fail if that same worker ends up doing the linalg tests.
