In this case (like in zeros) do you think it would be harmless to break
compatibility a bit and accept zeros(m,n,"logical") ? Since it's an
addition it's not the same as other imcompataibilities (is more like
"embrace and extend" hehe)

I can't see why MATLAB lacks of this. It to me as an overlook by MATLAB
developers (or perhaps they don't want people to use a lot logical
arrays?).
