I know it's missing from the upstream description, but if TexMaths can
also generate an SVG or PNG (I'm assuming it can) can the Debian
description read more like this?:

- LaTeX equations can be inserted as images (SVG or PNG formats) and the LaTeX
- code is saved into the image attribute for further editing.
+ TexMaths generates SVG or PNG images from LaTeX equations, inserts them into
+ the document, and the LaTeX code is embedded into the image attribute for
+ further editing.

Also, re: "the image attribute" I'm curious if it's embedded as
SVG/PNG metadata ( maybe XMP, or something from
https://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-PNG-20031110/#11textinfo )?  Or is it
as a LibreOffice property of the inserted image object?  Either way,
cool stuff!

Cheers,
Nicholas
