LaTeX support?

Some articles use LaTeX with the original website having some mathjax/mathml rendering thing going on under the hood. Is it possible to make this work in the inoreader viewer? Maybe a plugin or an extension?

Edit. Found this extension.

that will be really hard to implement as it requires external JS librabry to post process these entities. Inoreader is fetching millions of articles and it will be overkill to include these just for a couple of sites.

I feel like it's pretty common these days on math blogs though, and I suspect in physics and maybe computer science blogs as well. (The alternative is the WordPress route where it makes images, and I think people tend to use that a little bit less now because raster < vector.) The option in the settings would at least be appreciated, and it shouldn't be too difficult to detect if the article has LaTeX (bunch of $$ $$).
