Sage Usability Tasks
Source: Sage Usability Improvements List. TODO: Assign difficulties to individual tasks, if it's appropriate.
1. General
2. Documentation
3. Notebook: Admin
- Authentication:
- LDAP.
- UNIX accounts.
- Dashboard for server settings / status:

- Manage user accounts, groups, privileges.
- Restricted version for users.
- Registration:
- Challenge questions.
- Admin approval.
- Revokable custom tokens.
- Users:
- Groups.
- Privileges.
- Email address as username.
- Use secure tokens to reset passwords.
4. Notebook: Introspection
- Use Sphinx for sagenb.org docstrings.
Matrix B mentioned twice in B.solve_left?: B.solve_left(B, ...).
- Better error detection, e.g., for Maxima command completion.
- Completions link for mobiles.
- Live introspection cells.
- Introspection cross-links.
- Improve introspection / completion interface: floating div, RHS div.
New documentation browser. Send worksheet docstrings to this browser.
5. Notebook: "Modes"
- %timeit.
Graph editor - #1321.
- reST:
%rest cells (auto-hide, double-click to show) converted to HTML by Sphinx.
- Preparse in the browser: implicit multiplication, less work for server.
Python debugger a la Pylons.
Draw - SVG-edit.
- Annotate output from matplotlib's SVG backend.
Editor a la BeSpin
- Command-line history.
- Syntax highlighting.
- Context-sensitive completion.

- Use js-hotkeys.
- Splash-screen with common keys.
- 2D / 3D plots:
JavaScript animations.
Mouse-over for coordinates - matplotlib.
Interactively zoom, pan, annotate - canvas, SVG, Flot, Open Flash Chart.

7. Notebook: Under the hood
- Better handling of concurrent worksheet use.
- Smartly manage Jmol applet count, or memory use.
- Cythonize pexpect.
- Client-server synchronization:
- TinyMCE problem.
- Server-to-server for backups, possibly with authentication.
