Misc notes

This could go a long way. Many students use LaTeX in order to take notes in lectures, and I think there these things are interesting to look at in addition to the syntax highlighting and LSP itself:

  • The ability to add snippets — sure, LaTeX has some of them itself in the form of commands, but it can be really nice to have a nice snippet for typing a table with the tabular environment, for example.
  • Have some way to look at the final result, nice for typing math equations and similar. Even if it's just the current line in an align environment.
  • Allow to fold/dim text which is not in the current paragraph/environment.
  • SyncTeX support. Part of TeXlive, it allows synchronizing the views of source code and compiled output.

(sidenote: I don't even use Zed yet, though I'd really like to see this some time in future)
