Description
We should be able to somehow get a printout of a matrix that is suitable for pasting into an input cell.
I think that is what repr is supposed to do. Currently, repr is the same as str, which seems like a bug considering the python convention.

SAGE blatantly and *systematically* does not follow that Python convention.
I am happy if we implement systematically a method _input_form_ (say -- after Mathematica's well chosen named InputForm?) for objects which returns -- if possible (sometimes it isn't!) -- an expression that sage_evals to that object.
Discuss!
