AIUI this would mean that some journals (those with MathJax markup) would require Javascript in order to display correctly. I don't think there's a way around this if we want to be able to display maths. And I think that being able to display maths is an excellent idea. Maybe we need to make sure that it fails to a polite message about how we can't display the maths without JS?
(I don't know how MathML is used, and whether that requires JS, and so whether direct MathML support would be an alternative, but AIUI browsers that support MathML are rather rare at the moment)
Re the "not in the RTE" part of the suggestion: Ideally I would like to see a way to put maths markup in the RTE. I wouldn't expect it to display as WYSIWYG, but it would be nice to be able to use maths without having to type raw HTML for everything else.
