"Ultimately, it is hoped that menu as it is directly integrated into
the Sage notebook."

Well, that would be really neat. People have been asking for
something like this for years, and especially if it could have
symbolic representations of things (just for visuals), so that someone
could click the integral sign with endpoints and then the "missing

At the moment they are between brackets, since <...> causes javascript issues I do not know how to tweak.
