403	Add ipython support to ./bin/gmg shell	Christopher Allan Webber	hugomatic	"It would be great if we could launch ipython optionally like:

{{{
  ./bin/gmg shell --ipython
}}}

There's some code in werkzeug's codebase that looks like it does this the right way.  

{{{
        if ipython:
            try:
                try:
                    from IPython.frontend.terminal.embed import InteractiveShellEmbed
                    sh = InteractiveShellEmbed(banner1=banner)
                except ImportError:
                    from IPython.Shell import IPShellEmbed
                    sh = IPShellEmbed(banner=banner)
            except ImportError:
                pass
            else:
                sh(global_ns={}, local_ns=namespace)
                return
        from code import interact
        interact(banner, local=namespace)
}}}

If we borrow a significant chunk of this code, we should annotate correctly:
