Re: `LaTeX-verbatim-p' moves point

I had the same question once, but my survey didn't get any indicative
material about that.

The log for 921ea2485d9e0ad6387ba891f7a3efc0db98a678 shows that it lacks
`save-excursion' from the beginning. However, it doesn't seem natural to
me that predicate function moves the point.

I expect so. The only usage of (La)TeX-verbatim-p with explicit argument
is in texmathp.el, where there is guard with `save-excursion'.
