Cannot use LaTeX commands in Wiki tool
GENERAL

Description
If we write "$ \frac{a}{b} $", for example, "a/b" expect to be displayed, but actually displayed "fracab" in Wiki tool.
Other symbols ,$ a^b $ for example, are normally displayed, the symbol "\" seems to be removed when it displays.

I tested this in https://qa21-mysql.nightly.sakaiproject.org/, using Mac/Chrome. I made sure that MathJax/LaTeX and the Wiki tool were enabled in Site Info. Then I tried putting some LaTeX on a Wiki page. It did not render appropriately.
That said, I'm not sure enabling LaTeX in the wiki tool was expected. It doesn't seem to use the standard CKEditor that other, LaTeX-friendly tools (Lessons, Forums) use, so that may be why. We should confirm that it's supposed to work in the Wiki tool.
