I'm not sure and wouldn't give definite answer right now. Some time ago
I investigated this interesting possibility (to have a macro and
environment with the same name, this is useful especial for HTML export,
because environments are like tags in HTML), but don't remember the
details. The only thing I wanted to say was the statement
> I believe you can't define an environment with the same name of an

is wrong, standard LaTeX (and not only standard one) classes defines
some macros such that they have corresponding environment. See other two
attached examples.

Yes, exactly. Of course there are macros (and corresponding
environments) that can have labels, but it would be nice to not restrict
youself to only macros or environments, both can have labels.
