I guess even better would be to merge iso-tex2iso-trans-tab with quail's
latin-ltx.

But I thought iso-cvt.el is for converting 7bit strings in (La)TeX
files, to latin-1, utf8 or whatever while the quail stuff is independent
that and for input only, at least I cannot see any conversion function
in latin-ltx.

So if I understand you correctly you would like to merge iso-cvt.el with
quail-ltx.el? So that one would end up only with one translation table
and then either input functionality or conversion functionality.

Do I understand that correctly? But I don't think that it would be
helpful that \textquestiondown would be expanded to ¿ while typing.
Using auctex usually people would use macros to insert that.

But maybe I miss the point.

Actually, it converts to "Emacs characters" (i.e. an internal
representation).  So it's not specifically latin-1 nor utf-8, tho it was
originally mostly aimed at converting those characters covered by latin-1.

Indeed, they don't do the same thing.

I'm not sure if merging the two would really be the best option, but at
least have them share a table, so improvements to one carry over to the other.

It wouldn't hurt either.
