I see no reason not to add those (except for the noteToSelf part of
course) to the actual LaTeX bundle, and I'll do that after a bit of
testing and if no-one has an objection.

The only way I can think of is to create a new language definition,
with its own scope, something like text.mylatex, and in its syntax
add your own patterns and finish the patterns list with a : { include
= 'text.latex'; }, just like the latex syntax includes the tex syntax
via an { include = 'source.tex'; }. Then, when the latex syntax is
updated, you are in the clear, so to speak.
The problems arising from that, that I can think of, are with
languages that include text.latex in them, like latex beamer. In that
case, unless you change those things, your extra stuff will not be
visible there.
