Rajeev, I have done a little work with the sympy print/rendering package. Unfortunately, this looks like something that needs to adapt those mechanisms. Initially, I would suggest a specialized wrapper that determines the proper powers and then sends an adapted expression to the pretty_print package. Depending on how the vector printing works you may have to send strings not specialized symbols. I am not sure the pretty_print code itself could be adapted to what you want and still be compatible with everything else.
