From my reading of the spec, it appears that MathML embedded in HTML
documents (not just XHTML) is intended to work?
(http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#mathml)
I.e. something like the following snippet should render as math?
<body>
<math>
<msup>
<mi>x</mi>
<mn>2</mn>
</msup>
</math>
</body>
Is my interpretation correct?
I believe so, yes.
(Note, I'm not questioning browser support for the above, which I believe is
non-existent).
The above is actually supported in current nightly builds of Firefox if
you set the "html5.enable" preference to true so that you're using the
new parser. I can provide screenshots on request if desired. ;)
