I agree.

I investigated this. The doctest options(flags) is implemented in the parse 
method of doctest.DocTestParser class via _parse_example and _find_options. 
 Sage replaces the standard class with the custom 
doctest.parsing.SageDocTestParser class, which unfortunately do not 
implement the doctest options.

We may get back the doctest options functionality into Sage if we agree 
upon that this is desirable...
