Correct.

That's the idea: a list of strings which are used as commands and not as
environments, since environments use "\\".

"\\" is high-level, "\cr" is not. There are certainly drawbacks to use
replace \\ with \cr.

That would be too much properties to my liking. There are already many
of them in tables.

Sure :math-prefix and :math-suffix seem like a good idea.
