I am not sure I understand why you think following Unicode would be incorrect.
In any case, that does not matter if it would be too onerous.

Please note (as mentioned in [1] linked to in the original bug report) that the
example of a bevelled fraction in the MathML specification (added as an
attachment) does not suggest that
        <mfrac bevelled='true'/>
(MathML uses British spelling, apparently) should be rendered as a vulgar
fraction.

I do agree, however, that it seems reasonable to handle
        <mfrac bevelled='true'><mn/><mn/></mfrac>
or
        <mfrac bevelled='true'><mn>[0-9]+</mn><mn>[0-9]+</mn></mfrac>
as a special case and render it as a vulgar fraction, and this is probably the
best option if handling the Unicode fraction slash is not feasible.
