Of all the options, I think passing a keyword like "unevaluated=True"
is the best one so far. It's certainly going to be the less common
desired behavior, and I think.

sage: latex(integral(x+x, x, unevaluated=True))
'\int 2x dx'

is natural despite having simplified the x+x.

This fits with my previous suggestion. A named option ensures that it
will only be called if explicitly asked for. However, we need to have
a command to evaluate it at a later point in the calculations.

Cheers,
