Yes, that is the right class and spirit.  However, to my knowledge 
Mathematica does not have
a pen interface and one must enter equations on a linear (line) basis 
which are then re-represented
for you on the screen nicely.  I really want a WYSIWYG input and output 
capability with semantic
interpretation (context).  E-ink and other similar technologies are 
about to make the type of interface
that I want practical.  Unfortunately the products will be oriented 
'toward the masses' and not the
scientists.
