Initiate math mode based on class attribute

[Stevan White]

Proposal:
Initiate displaymath mode when a <p> or <div> tag has attribute
class="math", and inline math mode when <span> mode has attribute class="math", or if <i> or <b> tag has attribute class="mi", and finally, eqnarray mode when a table has attribute class="math".

This would facilitate porting simple math web pages to latex.

It would be much easier for the parser to simply support a "<MATH>" or <IMATH> or "<EQNARRAY>" Tag.  I know it wouldn't be supported by browser and HTML validators wouldn't be happy, but it woule be trivial to support that sort of use, where as the other way is doable, but would result in a little bit of nasty code.  What do you think?
