Sorry, I just realized that I didn't reply to this. I think the idea is that this loop consider the height of children that are not (embellished) operators in order to determine the stretch size. Then a second loop stretch the (embellished) operators to that size. The FIXME comment says that the first loop should only skip *stretchy* operators, so that e.g. <mo>+</mo> is taken into account in the determination of the stretch size. Probably, the second loop should skip these non-stretchy operators too.

I'll open a bug for that later, but it seems to me that this should be fixed after the operator dictionary implementation anyway, so that we know exactly which operator is stretchy.

See also bug 119043 for related improvements to this stretch code (size and alignment).

testcase

In the attached testcase, the brace should stretch to cover the size of the large <mo>p</mo>.

Asking review. The test will fail because this depends on bug 119043.

thus -> this

I would add the why you're skipping stretchy operators to the comment here as well.
