In order for me to handle your contributions, please send every new
style or patch-set for a certain cause (including the relevant ChangeLog
entry) as a separate mail.  Then I can simply mark every new mail as
TODO and work on it separately.

No, it's not overlooked.  I simply had no time to test it so far.  (You
didn't actually resubmit it.  Is the last version still ok?)

Hm, I can reproduce that, and currently I don't understand the error,
too.  It's something like

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument char-or-string-p nil)
  TeX-argument-insert("a)" t)
  (progn (TeX-argument-insert fmt t))

when I provided "a)" as format for items.  Why in hell does the call to
TeX-argument-insert signal that error?  Where does the nil come from?  I
mean, how can a call signal anything except for
wrong-number-of-arguments?  That's strange.
