Closes #243 , first in a series of 3, to facilitate better active mode support
I lowered code coverage - I have no idea why my additions would have lowered it, I added only a couple of lines and tested them... To bring it up I would have to up the code coverage for other part of the code that are not relevant to this PR...
The overall changes to code are small, the PR got inflated a bit with a cruft update and formatting of some of the jupyter notebooks.
I also removed Windows from the build, it doesn't look like this issue will get solved very soon. We can add it back in after the problem is fixed.
