I think I've already indicated my enthusiastic support for this change, but 
let me do it again!  In /The TeXbook/ Donald Knuth writes that the markup for 
display math mode allows "your manuscript to mirror what you  are trying to 
accomplish."  I write all my manuscripts in  org-mode these days, in large 
part because the mark-up is lighter-weight than it is for LaTeX, but at 
present the preferred markup for display equations does *not* really allow 
one to make the manuscript mirror what one is trying to do.

Enthusiastic thanks and support for this patch!
