Unfortunately that doesn't work when exporting to HTML though, I assume
it's for LaTeX export only?
I'd suggest there are 3 things that need to be addressed/fixed in org-mode.
First, the table-parser should respect =...= sections and skip over them,
just like a C preprocessor respects double-quoted string sections.
Second, there should be a way to indicate verbatim sections that doesn't
conflict with formula syntax.
Finally, there should be a way (e.g. \x{...}) to stick in a character by
ASCII/Unicode number. This would help with several issues when a literal
character is intended but it conflicts with a markup character.
