They are exposed to the user in the sense that you can access them with a single command, like "%edit" (as opposed to having to do 'from foo import bar' and then 'bar.edit()'). They are also exposed to the user in the sense that they are documented in the Sage tutorial: see <http://sagemath.org/doc/tutorial/interactive_shell.html#other-ipython-tricks>.
