This sounds reasonable.

Nitpick: I would use `format', also the final newline character is
useless, since it will be removed later during the export process.

Nitpick: I suggest to use `rx' macro. It really makes the code base
a better place.
You are missing some cases. The fragment could be $...$ or $$...$$
already, so you can return it as-is without sending the message.
Otherwise, it is a macro. We can assume it lives outside math mode. So
maybe the "Unrecognized fragment: %S" is in order in that situation. We
could also let HTML export back-end deal with it. I don't know what is
better.
WDYT?
