OK, so I'll start working on this tonight.

One question.  What I currently do is a simple

  (TeX-re-search-forward-unescaped "\\\\[])]" nil t)

This /mostly/ works.  It doesn't work in cases like this:

  -!-\( |x|=x \text{when \(x\ge0\)}\)

but has the advantage of being fast.

So, do we prefer a faster version which is not entirely correct ("worse
is better"), or is it better to have a correct (even if slower) version?

(Since I have now the infrastructure for moving tokenwise,
/implementing/ the correct version is not a problem.  Its speed might
be.)

I'd really like to settle the FSF CA thing ASAP, though I have one more
question to the FSF clerk.  I hope I'll be able to sort it out soon.
(That does not mean that I'm no longer critical about FSF/RMS.  I still
am, though less than earlier.  But this is another story, and I'm going
to write a bit about my stance in a future blog post.)
