That's a good idea, but then we should manually compute the equation label,
isn't this complex?
The fact is that we should use preview-latex as it was designed: wrap the parts
of the complete document we want to preview in a preview environment. Why do we
extract only the parts we need?
My opinion is: preview-latex has a lot of incompatibilities as we saw in the
time, using it the way we do now gives us a big burden and (almost) no
benefits, so IMHO we have to drop it and create a standard document XOR start
to use his real potential.
Probably using the full document with preview-latex would make it much slower,
making IP unusable on big documents, as it is in TeXmacs. So, my conclusion is:
let's drop preview-latex.
