I'm pretty sure that with SVG and CSS 3 border-image[1] it wouldn't be too hard to have professional looking scalable radicals, integrals, and brackets. Matrix would be taken care of by inline table, faction with inline blocks. What could prove a little harder is positioning of integral endpoints, as well as lower and upper bounds of summation and product symbols, without resorting to awkward markup. But it'd certainly be a lot easier for browser implementors to add some math-specific CSS properties for the missing parts than to create a full MathML implementation.
