When you use OpenOffice Math, in upper part you see formula and formula text editor in lower part. Almost like this:

$alt text$

%sigma = 2 %mu %epsilon + %lambda Tr(%epsilon)I

So my questions are:

How to replace OpenOffice Math's formula text editor with own text editor?
... or how to enable braces (syntax) highlighting in embedded editor?
... are there any extensions for anything like this?

I need this because sometimes it's too much braces and stuff and it's hard to distinguish which braces match each other.

Please do not suggest me to use MathType Mathematica (or anything) instead of OpenOffice Math (because I'm almost happy with it:)
