+"Strict Content MathML" is a subset, compatible with Open Math (which is itself an XML encoding).
+
+Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) is another XML schema for representing
+models of biological systems and chemical reactions.
+=> <http://sbml.org/More_Detailed_Summary_of_SBML>
+
+There are a bunch of non-printing "entities" (characters) with Unicode mappings:
+
+U+2061 FUNCTION APPLICATION;
+U+2062 INVISIBLE TIMES;
+U+2063 INVISIBLE SEPARATOR;
+U+2064 INVISIBLE PLUS;
+
+
+Presumably, we'll want to support reading *content* MathML, and output eithr
+content or presentation.
