Generally I do that with "C-u C-c C-e", but I still have to type 
"equ<TAB>". Perhaps to get what you want, since you mention that 
you do not have much elisp experience, it would be easier for you 
to record and save a keyboard macro.

It would be interesting to tweak LaTeX-default-environment so that 
it accepts a function as well. I'll try to do that when I have 
time.

You know that nothings happens in the LaTeX if you leave the label 
in the equation*, it will still have no numbering. Or is it that 
you are trying to get "undefined references" when compiling to be 
able to remove the linked references to an equation that you do 
not want labeled anymore? If that is the case, perhaps you want to 
take a look at the package refcheck 
(http://ctan.org/pkg/refcheck).

Best,
