Do we have any conventions or standards for the use of LaTeX in
docstrings?  Consider this:

    r"""
    This computes the integral homology `H_d(X, ZZ)` of `X` in
dimension `d`.
    """

versus

    r"""
    This computes the integral homology `H_d(X, \mathbb{Z})` of `X` in
dimension `d`.
    """

(or with \mathbf{Z} instead of \mathbb{Z}).  The first of these looks
better with interactive help ('sage: homology?'), and the second looks
better in the reference manual. So which should we use?  Should we
have a style guide which settles such issues?
