The variable org-latex-regexps has an element
("$" "\\([^$]\\|^\\)\\(\\(\\$\\([^
\r\n,;.$][^$\n\r]*?\\(\n[^$\n\r]*?\\)\\{0,2\\}[^
\r\n,.$]\\)\\$\\)\\)\\([- .,?;:'\")\000]\\|$\\)" 2 nil)
The 6th nested subexpression (starts with "\\([-") prevents conversion of
some latex math-mode stuff.
Is there a reason for that subexpression to be so restrictive? Because I
mostly write UTF-8 org-mode documents, I often have "$<some math>$" followed
immediately by an EN DASH or EM DASH (U+2013 or U+2014). Is there a reason
why those characters could not be inserted in that character class?
That is, could I change that subexpression to be "\\([---
.,?;:'\")\000]\\|$\\)" ?
[I've tried it with a couple of files and didn't notice any problems.
Thanks,
--Colin

Wow, I think I'm an org pariah. Did my email violate some org cultural norm? :-)
If so, I apologize.
Anyone have strong feelings about whether a change like this is advisable?

Mhh.. maybe you're an "Org God", and thanks to Org your todo list is
already empty ;) Which might not be the case of people who may reply
to your email in depth. It's just one day old, be patient!
(I'll myself look into this during this week, but feedback from others
is of course welcome.)

This should probably go to Carsten and Nicolas since they touched it
last according to
git blame -L 16840,16870 lisp/org.el
