Default In equations, can Greek letters be non-italic by default?

In the new Word 2007 equation editor, letters are always in italics by
default. For Latin characters this default is appropriate, but for Greek
letters it is unattractive. (In LaTeX, Greek letters are not set in italics.)

Is there a way to make the default format for Greek letters non-italics,
while keeping the current default for Latin letters?

(I tried to change it using the Math AutoCorrect dialog box, but there I saw
that the Greek letter macros are not italicized. It must be that the
"context" into which they are inserted is causing the Greek letters to be
italicized.)
