[BlindMath] UEB braille display

As you well know Neil, there is a need to update MathPlayer, so that some of
us can use MathPlayer+MathType+NVDA with 64-bit MS Word. We are currently
having to use MS Word 32-bit with our 64-bit computers. Is there anything
that we can do to help support this going forward? Or maybe I should say to
help support you? I did write a letter to WIRIS in regard to this, but I
heard nothing back. Also, I'm still fine with Nemeth!

MathPlayer gets its braille via liblouis. Liblouis currently doesn't support
UEB math. I believe that APH has done some work on UEB support and said they
would contribute that back to liblouis at some point, but that hasn't
happened yet. Trying to move this forward is on my todo list, but it is not
near the top of my list at the moment.
