Oh yes, there are ways of working around the limitation. But they are all just workarounds that create difficulties for either the writer or the reader, e.g. MathML is not practically writable by a human being. MathJax looks like the nearest thing to an actual solution for HTML (even if under the hood it's made of workarounds around workarounds), but I've never encountered a site that uses it other than the MathJax site itself.
Using Pandoc to convert our LaTeX math to MathJax for display sounds like the best option for us. The ability to copy and paste the generated Math could be handy. Most alternatives end up giving you images.
It's worked pretty well for me so far. I don't even need to host MathJax on my site - it's one of the libraries the Google CDN provides for free. (But I don't use much LaTeX more complicated than division, natural logs, etc.)
