For my purposes it is enough.
I need to write a function to interactively resize mathematical
parentheses based on their content, such as "\left( ... \right)". So
far, I have successfully used `sexp-at-point`, but this function does
not recognize balanced expressions that contain ";" and only works with
"(" and "[" but not with < etc..
The `forward-sexp` function does not necessarily give an error if the
parenthesis does not start a balanced expression. E.g.
$( x + y ]$
here "(" does not start a balanced expression but `forward-sexp` does
not return an error.
