I don't mind. It doesn't matter to use emacs built-in library to write
code simply.

I'd like to ask Paul some questions:

The TeX code appears _to right of_ the preview for inline math
expression for me. Is this a misbehavior? Or does your above sentence
miss this case?

I don't understand the change as a whole, but it seems that this change
extends cases which doesn't touch the preview images through EXCEPTION
argument of `preview-clearout' function. Doesn't this lead to leave some
kind of "debris" which needs additional clean-up facility after usage of
preview-latex?
