Description
I recently came across this paper from last years NeurIPS
https://ghliu.github.io/assets/pdf/neurips-snopt-slides.pdf
https://github.com/ghliu/snopt
I was wondering if there are any plans to extend Diffrax to support this improvement to the standard Neural ODE approach.

Research direction
Start by reading the linked NeurIPS slides and the ghliu/snopt repository to understand the proposed second-order Neural ODE approach. Then assess how it could fit into Diffrax; the issue names no Diffrax files or tests and provides no concrete acceptance criterion, so the intended implementation scope would need clarification.
