I really don't see how that's different from doing C-c C-e for inserting
the document environment with its \documentclass, followed by C-c RET
for inserting \usepackages.  Well, of course except that C-c RET is not
C-c C-e, of course.

And other than that, C-c C-e is for inserting environments, and
\usepackage is no environment, so even if it was convenient, it would
still be somehow wrong and astonishing.
