I think that it would be great to make the integration as soon as 
possible...
We a lot of things to discuss about you have pointed out.
As far as I know, Frederic was writing some tests, I would wait him to 
finish this before merging the code...
In the middle of the discussion about the dual mode editor ;-), I forgot 
to pointed out... but I was thinking in the same direction about nbconvert.


Cheers.

Damián.
