The problem is that mathed knows about \textrm, which can be obtained
via 'math-text-mode'. If you type M-m m in a formula, you'll get
exactly the effect of \textrm{}. This means that, since the parsing of
latex files is very fragile, it will break when it sees the extra
space. It took a quick look at it, but I am afraid to break everything
with each change I ponder :(
A similar problem (maybe the other one you described) is when people
add a \left( without the corresponding \right).
