I don't know enough about math publishing to answer that question,  
but I would encourage you to try to answer it for yourself by  
familiarizing yourself with microformats.  This is the first step of  
the microformats process:

http://microformats.org/wiki/process

That experience should give you a useful basis with which to evaluate  
the potential for a math microformat.  You may already be aware of  
the ongoing discussion of including MathML in HTML 5, but if not,  
that's another avenue you may want to explore.
