Sadly I won't have the time to day, to add the stuff to the wiki, just
one short comment:

Hmm, I think it would be enough to offer a possibility in the toolbox
to either insert a empty <mi>,<mn>,...
or even offer the possibility to turn selected text into a seperate
token, like this:
<mn> 123|456|789</mn>
 ->
<mn>123</mn><mtext>456</mtext><mn>789</mn>

Greetings
