Unfortunately, true support for mathml in browser engines was a victim of Google and Chrome. Google literally threw out all mathml support code when they forked Webkit. Google claimed the existing mathml code was insecure and that not many web pages used mathml. The first issue (security) has long been fixed. But Chrome/Google had decided on MathJax and no real support. The lack of websites that use mathml is of course a completely circular argument that makes no sense whatsoever giver few browsers supported it.

Right now Apple's webkit has good support for mathml, but Mozilla's browser engine easily has the best mathml support.

Not sure about native Windows browser engine support for mathml.

Sigil uses a special compressd version of MathJax to support mathml but only in Preview as Qt's old Webkit has not been upgraded to support mathml fully. Using newer Webkit's in Qt may help.
