I don't say that to be trite. It's an important requirement. Modern HTML 5 parsers deal with embedded markup very well. It let's you embed SVG, MathML, etc. inline. There are beautiful examples of embedded MathML that work with most of the bleeding edge browsers. IMHO thinking of this as a plugin is a non-starter. <br></div></blockquote></div><br><div><br></div><div>Cool!
