When reading pages with lots of mathematical notation, sometimes one can forget what a particular notation means. How possible would it be to add some sort of feature that would link a particular operator with the page explaining its usage or even just to make use of the acronym tag? For example: <math>S \subset \mbox{Power}(\Omega)</math> The subset operator could be linked to: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Set_Theory:Set_Operations or just use the acronym tag with the title property set to "subset".
You're either asking for a syntax highlighting extension for math markup, or for us to link text in the text box to documentation. Which is it, because the first is possible and the second is not.
My interpretation of the bug is this: persuade some parts of an equation to become links to other articles. For example, if the equation is displayed as a bitmap, you'd want to use an imagemap or something similar. Changing summary to reflect this.
(In reply to comment #2) That wouldn't make sense where display was concerned and it sounds ugly as hell.
Probably not feasible, and generally likely to be ugly. I'll mark this WONTFIX.
