--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
Not clear this is a viable approach. The sm Formula editor assembles entries
made in the Edit frame into the math nodes displayed.

Seems like a better way to proceed here would be the enable the global Special
Character Dialog (SCD) split button and charchart picker for use in the sm
Formula Editor.  The SCD split button already has support for global Favorites
(12) and Recents (up to 12).

The current Elements --> 'Others' panel provides picker for common single glyph
elements. 

While the 'Symbols...' picker dialog gives other presets and each of the styles
(Greek, iGreek and Special) includes an 'Insert' button action to add user
favorites.

The intent is customization (as recorded to user profile for reuse), the
Symbols... --> Special --> Insert... provides that now.  While the 'Others'
panel remains fixed.

Then there is the issue where specific symbols have StarMath or MathML "Names"
https://www.w3.org/TR/MathML2/byalpha.html used to compose the sm formula
nodes.
