Hi, I was wondering if there ever were any plans to support Tectonic [0]
OOTB.  For those who haven't heard of it, it is a kind of LaTeX
"distribution" based on XeTeX that downloads dependencies automatically,
but also has a custom toolchain.  It is supposed to be neat if you
cannot install package dependencies on your own.

They have some comments on how to use it in combination with AucTeX[1],
so perhaps it shouldn't be that difficult to upstream it, if the
proposed configuration is actually idiomatic and it is feasible for
AucTeX to detect that a system has Tectonic installed.
