Hi,
I may be a tad out of touch with recent sympy developments, but here goes.
(And I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong on any of these points.)

If I recall I wrote a patch to make this configurable. However, I never got
around to finishing it/writing tests for it. It should still be functional and
available from the issue tracker.

I believe \operatorname is part of the AMS math extensions. Ensure that the
AMS packages are used when you process the generated LaTeX.

Take a look at the breqn package: http://www.ctan.org/tex-
archive/help/Catalogue/entries/breqn.html
