I recently thought to add ~org-latex-preview~ to 
~org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c~ and it has been quite the productivity 
booster! Two arguments as to why this should be done:
- ~org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c~ currently does nothing when inside 
  latex-fragment or latex-environment so why not make it 
  ~org-latex-preview~?
- This intuitively matches my muscle memory from using 
  babel. LaTeX is code after all, and I'm often making mistakes, 
  so I want the fastest "edit-compile-edit" loop possible.

Here's what I currently have to achieve this in case anyone wants 
to give it a try right now :)

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun my-org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-latex-preview-hook ()
  (let ((element (car (org-element-context))))
    (if (or (eq element 'latex-fragment) (eq element 
    'latex-environment))
        (org-latex-preview))))

(add-hook 'org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-final-hook
              'my-org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c-latex-preview-hook)
#+end_src

Yes, it is indeed a good idea.
Alternatively, we may also use <TAB> for this.
Also, there is https://github.com/awth13/org-appear/

It will be more reliable to use `org-element-type' instead of `car'. The
latter is relying on internal implementation detail.

Can simply use (memq element-type '(latex-fragment latex-environment))

Would you be interested to submit a patch?
