indeed this is the standard in Latex, if I remember well. But it's hard to do if your document has no CSS class for formulas only.

@8140david: sorry for the suggestion of DejaVu. Since it's a popular unicode font I wrongly supposed it has also all math symbols. Unfortunately math will be never popular.
