Hi Uwe,

yes, some code is necessary as AUCTeX has no provisions to add a \label
after every \item in an enumerate environment.  I also think that is not
necessary, but that's only my opinion.

My recommendation is to put something like this in your init file:

(with-eval-after-load "latex"
  (defun ub/LaTeX-item-enumerate ()
    (TeX-insert-macro "item")
    (save-excursion
      (LaTeX-label environment 'environment)))

  (add-to-list 'LaTeX-label-alist
               '("enumerate" . "item:")
               t)

  (add-to-list 'LaTeX-item-list
               '("enumerate" . ub/LaTeX-item-enumerate)
               t))

It should do the job.

Best, Arash
