Using MathML is fine, but we should probably add fallback content for 
browsers that don't (yet) support it.

I've attached a slightly modified version of your MathML markup that 
fixes the matrix brackets for Opera 12 without breaking anything in 
other browsers [1]:

I replaced
<mo> ( </mo>
with
<mfenced open="(" close=")">

and
<mo> ) </mo>
with
</mfenced>

Also I've added a <mrow> before each <mtable> (and a </mrow> after each 
</mtable>) to vertically align the matrices with the preceding expression.

[1] Firefox is the only browser I have installed, in addition to Opera 
12 alpha, that actually renders this markup as intended.
