Thanks -- that'd be for after 9.4 of course.

Prefer
* lisp/ob-latex.el (org-babel-latex-preamble): New option for LaTeX
preamble customization.
"New option" is quite standard, an "option" being a customizable
variable. In this case, "New option" would probably be enough, given
the name of the option is quite self-explanatory. Also, some find it
pedantic, but "LaTeX" is the correct spelling in a changelog I guess.

The first line of the docstring should contain a sentence, so you'd
need to have a new paragraph after "runtime to the LaTeX preamble."

What for users who don't have inkscape?
