I guess that Constantine also wants 1-dimensional output. I.e., x^2 instead of

 2
x

But I'm not sure.

Of course, the real solution would be to overwrite the coercion to OutputForm
in Expression.  But that's probably too much to ask for from Constantine, and I
don't have the time to play around with that.

Constantine, I believe that mainly the trig functions get "funny" names.  You
could first get a string with

   str := unparse(y::INFORM)

and then use

   pos := position("DCOS", str, 1)
   if pos > 0 then replace(str,pos..pos+3,"cos")

to replace the names you dislike.
