Description
It would be great to introduce rendering of math formulae using LaTeX. Either using a local process or using one of the libraries like KaTeX (https://github.com/Khan/KaTeX).
For instance,
$\frac{1}{2}$ would become an image, rendering a fraction 1 over 2 when sent, and revert back to $\frac{1}{2}$ in the edit mode.
