--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Not a fan of the idea. The OLE embedded frame of the formula in a document
(Writer, Draw, Impress, or Calc) is awkward to work with once placed.

The canvas in Math allows very complex formula to be composed and structured,
and then linked into the document as needed, while opening of Math session to
edit an OLE formula is exposes all design any layout elements that would not
necessarily be re-implemented in .ui to provide a Sidebar content panel.

We need to finish the experimental Visual mode editing of formula.

Also, would prefer to continue improvements to the Math module to include
better interactive control over the placement of the OLE frame in the document,
provide better font/symbol styling, and improve direct input support for MathML
(possibly replacing StarMath ML), and ideally implement filters for direct
LaTex based formula input.
