"textContent": "I generally support the idea of enabling people to write math in rustdoc, and the choice of LaTeX-style math notation backed by katex.\n\nI want to request something of the _implementation_ : Please make sure that the math source code is converted to MathML at _render_ time, and therefore degrades gracefully if katex's JavaScript and/or CSS fail to load. (Last I checked, katex could do this, but it wasn't its default mode.)",
