Yeah, it works. To Bas's defence, the reason we didn't think of it is
that in LaTeX, opening math mode twice means closing it, or if using
the "math" environment, not possible (gives an error). We tend to
"transpose" our LaTeX habits to TeXmacs.

But in TeXmacs, indeed, there seems to be no problem in embedding a
math mode in a math mode, so yadda yadda ensuremath is not necessary.

But that kind of constructs breaks the LaTeX export "obviously".
