I am imagining a completely different supported mode that is very Sphinx-ish. That would I think not necessarily have an impact on the current look/feel of the notebook. Having tunderlying format be HTML should always be the default since HTML is by far the most powerful and flexible language in which to create... HTML, which is what the notebook displays after all. > The question could illustrate that I'm not sure I fully understand > what is being suggested.

In fact, we now do just that for the notebook's docstrings.
