Ah, Ok, thanks.  And IIUC having an entry like this

(latex-mode . LaTeX-mode)

in `major-mode-remap-alist' doesn't help either, right?  (At least for
newer Emacs versions.)

My only fear is that we change things outside AUCTeX from Lisp and
people will than tell us they use AUCTeX for usual TeX-writing and the
built-in mode for Org source blocks; and then the real fun begins.
