Mediawiki doesn't currently seem to support commands which instruct TeX about which symbol class a symbol should be. (These commands include \mathord, \mathop, \mathbin, \mathrel, \mathopen, \mathclose, and \mathpunct). These commands allow the writer to explicitly state whether a given symbol is being used as an operator, relation, etc., and are necessary for proper spacing when an operator is being used in an unusual way, and would avoid having to do manual spacing hacks such as the included URL. I know this probably isn't a high priority, but it would be really helpful for us TeX geeks!
