No big deal I'd say. Something like an invisible label that does not get

InsetFormulaBase is _not_ a math inset. InsetFormulaBase is a messy
wrapper to make the outer most math inset in a formula (usually a
MathHullInset) look like something the outer world want to talk to.

*shrug* math_fontinset.C has a total of 89 lines including 14 lines
#include/pragma, 21 empty lines, 9 lines for the text-drawing gimmick and
5 lines of comments. Now please show me how that works with _anything_
derived from insets/inset.h.
