Assume that should be see bug 127100

But do we really need Formula Editor recast in NB mode?

Just checked on Windows 10 with 6.4.0.2, issue of bug 127100 that the Math
module's main menu does not reactivate on OLE object edit does not occur. OLE
launch of the sm Formula editor in each module correctly opens the main menu
for the Math module along with its other GUI components--and then closes when
the OLE edit is complete.

Would agree it is visually jarring to leave the NB for the calling module
active while in OLE edit. But then it would be just as bad to close NB fully.

So, yes it would be nice to completely refactor the Math module (it is needed
to better handle MathML and latex syntax, and full use of Unicode mathematical
symbols). But doing it just to force it into Notebook bar mode is not
justification. 

For that matter can still argue that refactoring to be a Deck on the Sidebar
would be a more appropriate UX than shoehorning into NB.

IMHO this remains => WF
