Generally I tend to name use flags based on features they enable instead
of dependencies they require as this better documents what feature this
use flag enables. But soon (I hope) we'll have better ways to document
USE flags so things could change in near future.

mathml is good choice.

If package allows to disable/enable this feature then yes. Call it USE
flag texmacs or latex as you chose.

Does potting works without pyglet? Does package works without pyglet? If
this just adds opengl support for plotting then opengl is good choice of
USE flag too.
Generally I think ebuild uses USE flags only for dependencies but it
should also use them to configure package. See:
http://devmanual.gentoo.org/ebuild-writing/functions/src_compile/configurin=
g/index.html
"Often the configure script will try to automatically enable support for
optional components based upon installed packages. This *must not* be
allowed to happen."
So in your case you need to tweak build system somehow to allow package
be built without plot support even if dev-python/pyopengl,
dev-python/imaging and dev-python/ctypes are installed.
