I got intrigued too, when I read:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2026-10/msg00259.html

and after an initial glitch which affected by editing LaTeX, now everything
is going nicely. I had a function of my own to rename variables inside am
Elisp Function, but this stuff is much more general.

Yes, right and after looking at the commits, my impression is that they did
what I did with the #' ;-)
And from my perspective it went well, because now everything in the LaTeX
exporter menu is a function,
but maybe I overdid....
So, this time, instead of trying to solve everything in a blow, I think I
identified one variable where we can discuss if the simplification makes
sense or not.

Maybe I'll get around to solving it myself but no promises :P

:-) Could we go step by step? Please take a look at what I propose in the
scope I propose and tell me whether it makes sense or not...


Thanks, /PA
