* Exporting text before the first heading ?

  It seems that text before the first heading is not exported.  Using
  #+TEXT: might help, but #+TEXT: does not understand links.  Is that
  intentional ?

I guess this is not very well though-out, and maybe it would be good
to simply export the text before the first heading.
That TEXT is not HTML processed I would also consider as
a bug, but I know that some have made clever use of this bug
to insert custom HTML into a file.  This is now no loger
necessary since you can embed protected HTML with special commands.

Note that the #+HTML: and #+BEGIN_HTML...#+END_HTML directives are not (yet) a replacement for inserting literal html as it can be done using #+TEXT:. As far as I've noticed, #+TEXT: inserts html (or any other text) before the first heading (before the <h2> in the resulting html file), something the #+HTML directives can't do, since the effect of placing it before the first heading is null, as it is not exported.

This will change.  In the future, #+TEXT: lines will be fully
processed like any other buffer line, I consider that fact that
is was not processed so far as a bug. On the other hand,
constructs like the following will be allowed:

#+TEXT: Processed text iwth *bold* words
#+TEXT: #+BEGIN_HTML
#+TEXT: <a href="...">unprocessed HTML code</a>
#+TEXT: #+END_HTML
#+TEXT: /This/ will be processed again

There will also be an option to export the text before the
first headline, in which case the #+TEXT prefix is not necessary.
