Oh, allright.  We would need to provide an :annotation-function in
`completion-extra-properties' which translates, e.g., \alpha to α.
company-math seems to use some other ELPA package `math-symbol-list' for
that job which defines such a mapping.

So that sounds pretty doable to use that if it is installed, e.g., as an
optional dependency.

Feel free to open a bug report for that with the above mentioned
details.  (Also, feel free to attach a patch. ;-))
