Re: Where do the "default renderings" in spec chapter 4 come from?

we could do, and have in the past, eg

http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML2/chapter4.html#id.4.4.9.1.3

has two renderings for mean.

Although I seem to remember that has caused comment that giving multiple
renderings is confusing unless we say which one to use. I think
Christoph's suggestion of calling them sample renderings rather than
default may be good, it's easier to have multiple sample renderings than
multiple defaults....
