Now I know it was because ADE 4.0 -for Windows- DOESN'T SUPPORT MATHML. So, ADE 4 is to epub3 what ADE 3/2 is to epub2 (at least, under Windows)
It is clear that ADE 4.0 is tied to Internet Explorer code and IE is known to be really slow at support HTML5 so I would expect that until IE supports MathML you will not see it in ADE 4 and a whole lot of other things will not work.

According to http://html5test.com/compare/browser/ie-TP.html the beta version of IE will support MathML so there is a chance for a future point release of ADE 4. That web site, by the way, is a great place to see how browsers compare on HTML5 issues. You will see that even with the beta version IE is way behind most every other browser.
