You are right. I was referring to the value of
`org-edit-src-content-indentation' when talking about the indentation
offset.

You are right.

Then, may latex-fragment-specific logic be moved to
`org-edit-latex-fragment'? It already provides WRITE-BACK in
the `org-src--edit-element' call. We may as well take care about
clearing up indentation of the first line and other things there.

Side note: It looks like `org-edit-special' docstring does not mention
all the cases it considers. In particular, latex fragments are not
mentioned.
