Comment (by elixyre):

 I like the idea of a magic function "%sage_input on". And if every thing
 is ascii-art... I have some question:

 1 - The _repr_ method return (and must return) a string and it is too poor
 to produce an efficient and usefull ascii-art output. We could image use
 some baseline notion or ... My opinion is an ascii-art output must be a
 special class like PrettyConsoleRepr or whatever which can be improve by
 heritage. (That is not available with string.) --> That why my opinion is
 we don't have to use _repr_ but anything else.

 2 - How to use your code to get (easily) a list, a dict or whatever of
 some objects with an ascii-art output ? Your code implement only a hack
 for Matrix (or it was before...) no? --> If it is true my code suggests a
 solution (may be a bad one...)

 (Sorry for my very bad english)
