It has the following | drawbacks: | 1) It creates a warning on the console if a formula without delimiters is | converted. | 2) It produces invalid results for things that are not really _one_ formula, | e.g. the mentioned $a$ foo $b$. | | 1) is not the case currently in 1.4, but is IMHO a good trade-off wrt the | currently not working \text{test} conversion. | 2) is a regression wrt. 1.3, but IMHO not important because this kind of | pseudo formulas has never been officially supported. | | This is IMHO enough data now to make a decision. I'd say that the patch can | go in, because the advantages clearly outweigh the disadvantages. | | Lars, what is your opinion?
