In sage/server/support.py the function "docstring" constructs the
docstring for an object.
The reason the introspection (docstring) output appears in a pre
environment is this line in sage/server/notebook/cell.py:
self.__introspect_html = '<pre class="introspection">'+html+'</pre>'
I think if you replace that by
self.__introspect_html = '<div class="introspection">'+html+'</div>'
and were to make the function "docstring" output nice HTML, then that
nice HTML would appear in the notebook.
Note that there is also some introspection css in the file
server/notebook/css.py which is relevant to say changing background
colors, transparency, etc.
