200+ * The LaTeX parser has been completely rewritten; it is now much more
201+ accurate, robust, and extensible. However, there are two important
202+ changes in how it treats unknown LaTeX. (1) Previously, unknown
203+ environments became BlockQuote elements; now, they are treated
204+ as "transparent", so `\begin{unknown}xyz\end{unknown}` is the
205+ same as `xyz`. (2) Previously, arguments of unknown commands
206+ were passed through with their braces; now the braces are stripped
207+ off.
