ISSUE-15: Keep Including MathML-P in csymbol and ci ?

Keep Including MathML-P in csymbol and ci ?

State:: CLOSED
Product:: All
Raised by:: Paul Libbrecht
Opened on:: 2007-07-25
Description:: MathML-presentation is allowed within ci and csymbol and the usage of this seems to be precisely for rendering purposes. This comes as a supplement to notation-documents and, to me, is bad since it duplicates the MathML-p tree at every-occurrence of the ci or csymbol element.

This approach also has the strong problem that it is left to computing engines to identify when to variables are equal. E.g. should <ci><mi style="font-weight:bold">b</mi></ci> and <ci><mi style="font-weight:700">b</mi></ci> be considered the same variable? (they are "CSS-equivalent" !)

we have decided to keep this in pragmatic cMathML3, closing this issue
