Talcum

From its inception in spring 2004 (unclutter.el) on, a collection of the most useful tools for LaTeX editing in Emacs. The first extension to bring a WYSIWYM feeling to Emacs by hiding markup commands, labels, refs, etc. The only extension for Emacs to support automatic reload of files after compiling, some-chapters-only compilation, hierarchical minibuffer completion, simplified command definition, and selection of equation labels by their output numbers.

It might or might not work well for you: there's more workarounds for Emacs bugs in there than I care to remember.
