Yes, patch set is in git.  Downloading and compiling would be best.

Yes

M-RET (translated from <M-return>) runs the command LaTeX-insert-item
(found in LaTeX-mode-map), which is an interactive compiled Lisp
function in ‘latex.el’.

It is bound to C-c C-j, M-RET, <menu-bar> <LaTeX> <Item>.

(LaTeX-insert-item)

Insert a new item in an environment.
You may use ‘LaTeX-item-list’ to change the routines used to insert the item.

With the test file I posted here:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/auctex-devel/2017-03/msg00020.html

the command should insert suitable number of `&'s after `\\', the logic
is 2 * ncols - 1.  So you can replace 2 with 5, it should give you 9 &.

Thanks,
