OK. So what about supporting this and also version with <alt
role="tex">...</alt> for people who are using graphic instead of
mediaobject for some reason.

<inlineequation>
<alt role="tex">a^2+b^2=c^2</alt>
<graphic fileref="a2b2c2.png"/>       (or inlinemediaobject)
</inlineequation>

And documentation for stylesheet parameter will say that the first way
(using textobject) is preffered.

Is this acceptable?
