Does this mean you want to use Greek Unicode characters instead of \alpha
... \omega in the source?

I can't help with Sphinx formatting, but mind, that also xelatex does not
process non-ASCII characters in mathematical mode unless you also use the
package unicode-math.
OTOH, the Docutils latex writer transforms Unicode characters to their
(La)TeX equivalent in mathematical mode via the call::
math_code = node.astext().translate(unichar2tex.uni2tex_table)
where the translation dictionary unichar2tex.uni2tex_table is defined in the
docutils.utils.math sub-package. Maybe this can be ported to the Sphinx
maths extension.
