Yes, this would be a possibility. Normally I tend to use functions
provided by Emacs if the do what I need. In case of
`back-to-indentation' (now looking for whitespace syntax) I thought it
would be good because there might be other whitespace characters in a
LaTeX file besides space and tab we want to skip.

Couldn't the information about the character syntax which is used in
multibyte mode also be used in unibyte mode? (I hope this question is
not too naive.)
