>From my experience, with usetex True and without r'', the TeX string is parsed
correctly even for stuff like text(0,0,'$\sum_{n=1}^{100}$ with $\Omega$'), i.e.
mathmode and textmode combined.

Here, indeed, with usetex False, using r'' produces the \sum sign in the .svg 
but
"n=1" and "100" are not alinged correctly (they both appear above \sum). With 
usetex
True there is the NotImplementedError (mpl 0.90.0dev3131).
