We may have discussed .leo.ipynb files before. But I'm pretty sure this is 
a new Aha.

*The Aha*

We could design a (json) file format for Leo that would "masquerade" as a 
jupyter notebook.  This would instantly give us access to all of the "trust 
mechanisms" of the jupyter project!

It would also give us all the *other* aspects of the jupyter project, 
including access to all the various kernels that jupyter provides.

*The format of .leo.ipynb files*

.ipynb files are json, so they naturally support nested data.  It should be 
possible to design a format that:

1. Will load as a "vanilla" jupyter notebook.
2. Will *naturally *represent .leo files.

In fact, the .ipynb file format is flexible.  We could use as many 
.leo.ipynb file formats as we like.

*Summary*

.leo.ipynb files are not just a way to "play better with jupyter".

.leo.ipynb files allow us to use jupyter's capabilities, including 
jupyter's trust mechanisms and kernels.

.leo.ipynb files could also support a jupyter plugin for Leo.
