Detect math-mode and text-mode in LaTeX

Detect math-mode and text-mode in LaTeX

Is it possible to use Pandoc to detect if you are in text-mode or math-mode 
inside LaTeX? That is, on any LaTeX file. What I would like to do is to 
test some conformance on part of the LaTeX file, for example, the presence 
of a "." (dot) in math-mode or \mathrm{} in text-mode...

You can use a filter to see if anything parsed as a Math element
contains a dot, for example.

For the other case, you'd need to use -f latex+raw_tex and then
see if there are any RawInline or RawBlock elements that contain
`\mathrm`.
