That's what I discovered, too.  The current idea (at #11790) is that you 
can set a new environment variable, SAGE_SHPROMPT, and it will use that 
setting.  If that's not set, you can set PS1 in a new file, .sage/.sagerc, 
and it will use that.  Otherwise it will create a prompt which magically 
tries to satisfy everyone's needs and desires, and therefore satisfies 
nobody.
