Like someone noted in the vimtex issue you linked, I use UltiSnips together with snippet definitions from vim-snippets, which works pretty well with the begin
snippet. vim-snippets
includes a bunch more snippets too which I find quite useful, particularly for LaTeX. I don't know the vsnip
plugins you mentioned but they can probably do the same.
I ended up setting up UltiSnips and using the snippet given in the issue.
