Following up myself, the patch was not good enough.  Here a test case of
fontification right now:

Applying this patch:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
diff --git a/font-latex.el b/font-latex.el
index 83e21158..8a6fef4a 100644
--- a/font-latex.el

   ;; chars with word syntax.
-  (TeX-re-search-forward-unescaped "\\\\[^ ,-]\\(?:\\s_\\|\\sw\\)+" limit t))
+  (TeX-re-search-forward-unescaped "\\\\[^{}$&#_ %/,-]\\(?:\\s_\\|\\sw\\)*" 
limit t))

   "Match math pattern up to LIMIT.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
