+  * The LaTeX parser has been completely rewritten; it is now much more
+    accurate, robust, and extensible. However, there are two important
+    changes in how it treats unknown LaTeX. (1) Previously, unknown
+    environments became BlockQuote elements; now, they are treated
+    as "transparent", so `\begin{unknown}xyz\end{unknown}` is the
+    same as `xyz`.  (2) Previously, arguments of unknown commands
+    were passed through with their braces; now the braces are stripped
+    off.
 
   * `--smart` is no longer selected automatically with `man` output.
