Comment (by vbraun):

 1, 2) I agree on the first two, but I don't want to do any further
 refactoring on this ticket. It is already way too big...

 3) is actually never used, thouugh it might be handy to have a plain
 IPython formatter. I've clarified the documentation.

 6) its still not clear to me what the best syntax is, so for now I think
 its easiest to just allow different combinations. But I don't like
 "simple" (not expressive, better: "plain") and "typeset" (probably better:
 "mathjax").

 7) was supposed to be `OutputImageDvi`, fixed.

 10) The backend supported_output can return any iterable. The display
 manager then turns that into a nice frozen set and performs checks and
 type demotion. Nobody interacts with the backends directly, the display
 manager intentionally has no public accessor for the current backend.

 11) Just for simplicity, the display manager's type isn't global so you
 already have to work to try to make a second instance. You aren't going to
 accidentally call the ctor.
