The way I learned XML, XML is for content, and CSS is for display.  It seems 
that MathML violates that separation between style and content.  There is 
little chance that I'm the first one to mention this.  Is there a history of 
discussion on this topic somewhere?  I don't want to get too far into MathML 
on this list, but, since I'm skinning my knuckles trying to learn to work 
with MathML and Mathematica, I figure a bit of discussion on this topic in 
this context is in order.
