testcase

This this the counterpart of bug 66036 for FILEOPEN. The Word Processor is able to open and save ODT documents with mathematical formulas, and they are encoded as MathML. However when opening HTML document, the MathML formulas are imported as text nodes and thus the formatting is totally wrong. For example in the attached testcase, the MathML formula becomes

There exists no HTML5 import filter, therefore the default import filter 'txt' is used.

This is a request for enhancement.
