Description
U+002D HYPHEN-MINUS is too short, so MathML browser implementations render it as U+2212 MINUS SIGN.
Do we want to standardize this workaround?
I'd prefer not, but I guess the proper way to do it would be via a new text-transform value for mo.
If not, tools should generate the proper code point instead and we can write a polyfill for that.
