Feature suggestion

[David Kastrup]

Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.

If the bug (or problem) is triggered by a specific (La)TeX
file, you should try to produce a minimal sample file showing the
problem and include it in your report.

Your bug report will be posted to the AUCTeX mailing list.

When inserting a macro or environment, sometimes one wants to use
optional arguments that AUCTeX does not know about. For example, it
would be nice if I could enter
itemize[<+->]
as an environment name to AUCTeX's C-c C-e and get
\begin{itemize}[<+->]
as the result (this is current beamer class stuff).

In a similar vein,
enumerate[1.]
to get
\begin{enumerate}[1.]
when using the enumerate package would be nice. In general, a string
of optional and mandatory arguments could be stripped off (and
probably added to the prompted default) and placed after the
\begin{...}). To make the stripping not too complicate, it could just
tack everything after the first LaTeX word to after the brace.
