What about cut-and-paste? Esp. browser-to-stuff. html in console perhaps
more annoying but again could be useful for cut-and-paste of something...
actually, maybe it would be easier to make an html table by firing up Sage
and having it output the correct html for a complicated table of function
values :) The user should have the option of getting it ''somehow''.

to adjust doctests, but it is livable and I think is a great option. Karl-
Dieter - are you happy with this one?
Maybe? I'm not sure what the question is. You mean about documentation?
I would think there is somewhere else where this comes up in the tutorial
or something, but it would be good to mention there. What about
[http://git.sagemath.org/sage.git/tree/src/doc/en/prep/Intro-
Tutorial.rst?id=9a4bc8d4f2cfe6f16567de1c82efb45c9d194023#n627 here] - what
do you suggest replacing this with? Maybe with first the "new" output of
`html` and then showing how to actually use it?
As a different question, what happens with `iframe` in this new behavior?
I know that some people have used this to embed a variety of interesting
things (videos, Geogebra) in the sagenb. Would this just be almost-
inaccessible or would we just need to have some update on the
corresponding place... Note that I'm not making this up,
[http://forum.geogebra.org/viewtopic.php?t=34358&p=122976 here is a
Geogebra forum request] for exactly this. So it's "used in the wild".
