Description
This is as much as a "thank you" as an actual feature request, hoping that it makes you smile.
I've tried to pretty print MathJax to point out my wiki answer on meta.crypto.stackexchange.com here. However, although pretty printing of $\TeX$ and $\LaTeX$ is supported, there seems no easy way to do the same for MathJax. A small definition could be added to support $\MathJax$ by default - even if just for use within MathJax itself. It's not like we're ever going to use it in actual formulas anyway.
I'm happy to leave fighting on how MathJax should be formatted to the community and technical committee.
Thank you so much for all the good work. We're benefiting from it on crypto on a daily basis. And yes, although it is an actual feature request, consider it extremely low prio. Maybe something for a milestone release or lustrum.

Research direction
The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the existing TeX and LaTeX pretty-printing definitions and determining how a default MathJax definition would fit. Done means MathJax can be pretty-printed in the described use case without affecting ordinary formula rendering.
