Okay, this is implemented now.

Depending on how RefTeX was installed there might be different
measures required for activating it.  If it is installed in
`load-path' a simple `(require 'reftex)' would be enough.  If it is
not installed in `load-path', one could do

 a) (load "<dir>/reftex.el")

    AFAICS <dir> can be a relative location below `load-path'.  So if
    RefTeX is installed in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/reftex
    (and nothing like subdirs.el adds the directory to `load-path')
    one could use `(load "reftex/reftex.el")'.

 b) (add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/reftex/dir")
    (require 'reftex)

The latter is probably what I would recommend to users because it is
consistent with the case where RefTeX is installed in `load-path'.
What do others think?
