MathMl 2.0 specs allows to embed one ( or more) alternate "content" xml trees to
express the logical structure of a mathematical formula ( with eg but not
limited to OpenMath semantics) or express the formula with  another "annotation"
language ( eg Tex) 
Allowing for attaching such extraneous structs to StraMaths objects would permit
plugins, macro or external apps (when exporting) to take advantage of the
semantics of a math object.
The formula editor wouldn't need to have to parse/validate the content ( it
would only deal with the current "startmath" subtree) but only to allow
inserting, deleting, (and/or very basic text editing of such a structure) and
above all preserving the data when saving/copying/pasting. Extended 
functionnality. 

Possible use cases :
-  macro set to generate a spreasheet to instantiate a formula, draw a chart...
- recording of CAS expression ( Macsyma, Maple, Mathematica, Yacas...)
- generating plots from formula ( using eg Gnuplot)
Pros : 
- MathML 2.0 complicance, thus ODF compliance.
- relative simplicity of implementation while allowing for various and complex
extensions ( via plugins/macro)
