So far people mentioned radicals and glyph shaping/kerning.

Another obvious issue is stretchy characters like integral signs and brackets. Is the CSS model poerful enough to allow for this? If not, the mosel needs to improve.

I'm pretty sure that with SVG and CSS 3 border-image[1] it wouldn't be too hard to have professional looking scalable radicals, integrals, and brackets. Matrix would be taken care of by inline table, faction with inline blocks.

What could prove a little harder is positioning of integral endpoints, as well as lower and upper bounds of summation and product symbols, without resorting to awkward markup.

But it'd certainly be a lot easier for browser implementors to add some math-specific CSS properties for the missing parts than to create a full MathML implementation.
