Edits to these formula OLE objects, or formula layout changes, can only be made
from the Math formula edit module which remains non-UI and incompatible with
MUFFIN

Absent the needed refactoring to implement Formula editor in UNO controls (for
NB and/or Sidebar deck)...

1. it would help to hold the NB bar on the 'Object' tab on launch of the OLE
editor, rather than shifting the NB bar to the 'Home' tab--holding the NB
static.

2. approach might be to  disable all controls on the NB and visually grey them
out--just while the sm Math OLE formula edit is active, its main menu and GUI
panels--to leave the NB bar visible but suppressed. 

3. on return from the OLE edit, restore function of the NB bar controls, and
allow the NB tab focus to return to 'Home'

It does most of this now, just that the controls are not disabled, and we get
the visual shift from the 'Object' tab to the 'Home' NB tab which is useless as
none of the controls function.

Not sure it can be done efficiently.
