Martin,

I have no opinion on how a LaTeX input file should be formatted.

This part of the Emacs 23 behavior is due to that change:

2007-09-21  Glenn Morris  <rgm <at> gnu.org>

        (latex-forward-sexp-1, latex-backward-sexp-1): Doc fix.
        Handle escaped parens.

If you convinced us that

\[
abc
\]

is more correct LaTeX style than

\[
   abc
\]

we might reconsider this.

Leslie, what's the preferred way to indent this?

martin
