It is not currently available in the form you mention.  Specificly
we do not have support for in cell markup yet.  Eg no making _part_ of
a string/number bold or using a different font.  However, the
development version of gnumeric is now unicode friendly internally,
and pango is quite smart about handling fonts.  So if you can figure
out how to type a greek letter without using the symbol font it will
work.  I have vague recollections of using AltGr + stuff in other
apps, or requiring some magic incantation to type a unicode char by
number.

I'm betting that owen has already implemented the magic to do this
long ago.  Its just a question of diggiing it out.

Owen ?
