Hi Marcos, all,

The issue is that I am not a big user of Math myself – that's why I think you
should be a bit careful with my opinion here. :) So, yes.

In any case, you should be very careful with adding completion for single quotes
(') as those are often enough meant to be apostrophes.

Also looking at the patch again – do we have to consider any localisation
context?
E.g. Arabic uses right-to-left text, so the bracket typed first would probably
be ")". (Again, I haven't much of an idea what I am talking about here – I've
never tried using the math entry field in Arabic.)


Stefan.
