Comment (by kcrisman):
I think that we definitely don't want to include all possible graphics
from doctests in a local Sage download (or build), some are quite large.
And most people probably would only be using their local doc in the sagenb
anyway, which has the live doc. (Does SMC have an analogous concept? I
hope so.) However, in the mirrored documentation I think we definitely
(if possible) ''do'' want it, so an optional target seems plausible.
What I'd like to see is to use Harald's idea here (would one need the
correct backend, e.g. `SAGE_MATPLOTLIB_GUI`, built?) to test that it works
at all.
As to formats, we would want something that works best on webpages.
`.sobj` is not appropriate for that :) and I don't know how embedded pdfs
look. svg might be too big. Currently when we do add them, we use png,
but those are of course not scalable.
