Hi, I just noticed that

2005-03-14  Masayuki Ataka  <[email protected]>

	* tex-fold.el (TeX-fold-prioritize): Cater for preview-latex.

included changes to preview.el.  Having been away, I might not have
properly taken notice of the respective discussion on the list.

Please: changes to the preview-latex system should

a) be mentioned in preview/ChangeLog

b) not tie preview-latex into a particular AUCTeX release at the
current point of time.

It is well possible that I'll want to release a preview-latex 0.9.1
package with fixes to the build system and some other fixes,
independently from AUCTeX.  It is also possible that we'll provide
separate preview-latex releases for a bit of a time (to work with some
prepackages AUCTeX releases like the XEmacs stuff).

I have not yet made a decision about that.  And I think it very
unfortunate if preview.el requires tex-fold.el to be loaded.  If we
need to place overlay priorities for some reason, I think we should
try to figure out a system where preview.el can place its respective
priorities without consulting with tex-fold.el.

Can we figure out some proper scheme for that?  I don't know the
details of the problem that we need to solve here.
