Thanks for fixing the commentary for org-persist. I've already spent more time than I can justify on this patch. I think the latest version is an improvement since it makes SVG export to latex work whereas it currently fails on my system.
I understand if you decide to reject this patch in favor of waiting for something more ideal. I will not be working on this patch any further.
