Given modern C++ and return value optimizations, you should consider just having this be:

    FractionParameters fractionParameters() const;

No reason it needs to be a get function; move is quite efficient.

Ditto.

> Source/WebCore/rendering/mathml/RenderMathMLScripts.h:65
> +    void getScriptMetricsAndLayoutIfNeeded(RenderBox* base, RenderBox* script, ScriptMetrics&);

Ditto. Return value instead of get style. Also, can these arguments be references instead of pointers?

Same here.

That one is a bit complicated so I'll handle it in follow-up patches. Basically getScriptMetricsAndLayoutIfNeeded does three things: it retrieves MATH parameters, it calls layoutIfNeed on all the scripts and finally it determines the minimal shift/size of each script & take the maximum of the values (they are two separate calls for the pre and post script lists). I think this should be reorganized a bit (splitting the three parts and make the maximum of pre/post more explicit).
