How to get better scalable bracket?
Scalable brackets in Math formulae get rather ugly now (since some time, currently with V5.02) as soon as they need to scale to greater height. In specific (next to) horizontal parts of square or curly brackets are rendered some mm thick then.
In "old times", when I still used Math more often, this was not the case. Now even a curly bracket from the OpenSymbol font sized to 88 points is looking much better than the lbrace eg, scaled to similar height.
Are there settings to better that?
(Editing:)
I want to illustrate the issue. See the attached example.

Is 'Math' actually orphaned? (Does @Regina know something about it? Did anybody at least read my offer? Nobody commented on it to date.)

Is there a working solution meanwhile? What needs be done to make it also work for me?
OR:
When will a solution to bug tdf#32362 be available? Comment #35 there encouraged hope, but that's more than a year ago, and nothing seems to happen. Too bad that I don't understand the technical background.
My memories of "old times" may be inaccurate. The well rendered curly brackets I have in memory may have been imported from Word documents as graphics. I remember that I once made the effort to reconstruct many formulae with 'Math', (of StarOffice V7 then) but I am no longer sure if they rendered nicely in the beginning. Nowadays they surely don't in the mentioned cases.
Like next to every flaw of LibO this issue isn't one I need urgently a solution for since I am a retired teacher of Math and Physics.
However, from my experiences before retirement, I can say that scientific teachers are more open to accept and to indirectly promote open software. On the other hand bugs like this one are very severe disadvantages in their eyes, probably making LibO definitely unsuitable.
