I recall seeing somewhere that in ReST/Sphinx you can configure a default "mode" for the backticks, so I think Ondrej is writing docs for one his other systems and he *must* use math:`x^2` to get LaTeX output. However, Sage's installation has chosen to configure the defaults so that just `x^2` is treated as being in "math" mode. So in one sense, Sage already makes it easy to get math into the docs, since we don't have to prepend with math: . Having to add math: would make William more totally crazy, but would perhaps reduce the confusion. Not a vote, not even a suggestion. Just some background (if I'm even remembering right).
