Hi,

I couldn't find previous discussions on this.

Looking at org-element-latex-environment-parser LaTeX environments are
recognized as "[ \t]*\\\\begin{\\([A-Za-z0-9]+\\*?\\)}" (for start)
and "^[ \t]*\\\\end{%s}[ \t]*$" (for the end).

However, for e.g. small equations one might want to write

(*)         \begin{equation} PLACEHOLDER \end{equation},

i.e. in one line.  This fails to be recognized as the latter regexp is
not satisfied.  For code generated by humans this is not an issue.
However, e.g. SymPy generates code in the (*) format.  Prefixing (*)
with "#+LATEX:" will prevent ox-html from recognizing it.

Should org-element try to catch one-line environments as the one
above?  Or is it "a can of worms"?

Cheers,
Rasmus
